The New List!
From the old list
-The White Stripes
-Led Zeppelin
-The Rolling Stones
-David Bowie
-Pink Floyd
-The Libertines (More likely now that both pete and carl aren't tied down with side projects, any day now I reckon)
The Newbies
-Bon Iver ( Meant to see him last year but never got around to popping up to Dublin, there were too many gigs last year as it was)
-The Flaming Lips (Never heard a bad live word about them! A must see)
-Bright Eyes ( Should have seen him in 2007 at Oxegen, wont miss that opportunity again)
-Bruce Springsteen ( After getting into the earlier stuff I think its time to see this master at work)
-Elbow
-Badly Drawn Boy
-Wilco
-Modest Mouse
-The Doves
+I Will keep adding to the list so keep an eye out.
If I keep adding to it ill never finish but on the other hand I never want to be finished. I have nearly seven knocked off the original list, which is great going, hopefully ill have another seven gone this time next year.

Hey IL, been a while. Morrissey in Leisureland should be great. Is that a bowling alley?
Oh, by the way - are you aware your blog title in firefox tabs is ".", and in google reader etc - it doesn't come up as Indie Limerick.
ya its when i made the blog to have a picture at the top instead of a text title, its "." so it doesnt cover the picture on the header, of you have away around it let me know
Aha, I see. Can't help I'm afraid. Maybe you should just change the name of the blog to "." Problem solved. . .
How about My Bloody Valentine? I saw them at Electric Picnic last year and they absolutely blew me away. Guitars making noises that didn't sound right for a guitar....was truely stunning.
ha ha good luck with led zeppelin but unless you've figured out a way to bring back Bonham back to life it could be kinda difficult...
