  • Mother Reilly's 14/11/08

    Smokestack fans knew what to expect, but the rest of the Friday-night crowd in Mother Reilly's were first intrigued and then converted. The band started light and then swung through a blend of re-interpreted covers and originals that was heavy on the rockers. With a top-notch vibe firmly established, it was a pleasure to cruise through a more traditional second set, ending with a premiere of Sean Plunkett's tribute to Little Richard: 'Ballyogan Betty'.

    The setlist:
    Jackson
    I'll Be Seeing You
    Smokestack Lightning
    Cold Dinner Blues
    Blues With A Feeling
    Sugar Sweet
    Lovin' With A Feelin'
    On The Road
    Tennessee Woman
    Highway Chile
    Help Me
    Don't Tell Me

    I Ain't Got You
    Drinkin' Wine
    Dirt Cheap Blues
    School Day
    One-Room Country Shack
    Cold To The Bone
    Route 66
    Some Day
    Ballyogan Betty

  • JJ Smyth's 04/11/08

    The low-down:
    Despite a remarkably low turn-out (due to the American presidential election, perhaps) Smokestack Lightning delivered the goods on this brisk November evening. The newies (Don't Tell Me, Got You On My Mind) came off nicely, and One-Room Country Shack managed to be even more elastic, spacious, dynamic and expressive than usual.

    The setlist:
    Smokestack Lightning
    Got You On My Mind
    I'll Be Seeing You
    Blues With A Feeling
    Mojo In A Bag
    Sugar Sweet
    On The Road
    Cold Dinner Blues
    The Big Fat
    Jackson

    Tennessee Woman
    Drinkin' Wine
    Don't Tell Me
    One-Room Country Shack
    Route 66
    Some Day

  • The Bleu Note 06/09/08

    The low-down:
    The crowd was attentive, the sound technician was skilful, and Smokestack Lighting were in top form after a weekend of recording. This gig had everything going for it, and the freakish accidental breaking of three bass strings in a row only slightly destabilised the first set. Confident takes of Route 66 and Drinkin' Wine, as well as the first live version of the original Got You On My Mind formed the memorable moments.

    The setlist:
    Smokestack Lightning
    Sugar Sweet
    I Ain't Got You
    Blues With A Feelin'
    Cold Dinner Blues
    Tennessee Woman
    Help Me
    Dirt Cheap Blues
    Highway Chile
    On The Road
    The Big Fat

    Ab- Blues
    Drinking Wine
    Got You On My Mind
    Sunday Night
    Mojo In A Bag
    I'll Be Seeing You
    One-Room Country Shack
    Cold To The Bone
    Route 66
    Some Day

    This better be funky... cos if it's not... well, I dunno really. I couldn't imagine it not being funky so I never came up with a threat.

    That kinda deflated that rant. Eh, yeah, see y'all later then. :D

    You're apparently playing two gigs on the one night - the third of August, both at nine o'clock.

    Ambitious.
