Goldenplec posted a news article saying it's in July, but when I asked the lads on Twitter, they said they're looking into it.

Not sure if this is an ad for beer or for the festival, but Care For is used on it anyway.

Review of Barcelona Gig:Delorentos were yesterday in the hall Music Hall in Barcelona presenting his latest work "Little Sparks". The concert was the first of a total of seven that the Irish are scheduled in Spain, through the Festival SOS 4.8 (Murcia) and FIB (Benicassim). The alternative rock band, originally from Dublin, has been working on this third album for over two years, and finally the album was produced by Rob Kirwan, also producer of PJ Harvey , Editors and U2 , with a truly remarkable result. Delorentos are the voices of Ronan and Kieran McGuiness Yourell, both also guitarists of all, share the spotlight without misgivings. The quartet is completed by Niall Conlan on bass, and Ross McCormick on drums. The four component parts, which provides a variety of sounds much richer. Their first album was released in 2007 and titled "Love With Detail" is being presented opening for Sinead O'Connor , Dave Matthews Band , Supergrass , and even the Arctic Monkeys . Hailed by critics, won nominations for the Choice Music Prize and Meteor awards as "Best Irish Album." The second album came in 2009 under the name of "You Can Make Sound", and he returned to get two Meteor Award nominations for "Best Irish Band" and "Best Irish Pop Act." The third disc, the mostly sounded yesterday at Music Hall, was presented to the public in early 2012. Before publication of the full LP, took an acoustic EP format, which was gradually rising Youtube while the band played the opening days of empty shops in Ireland. The strategy was a success, and "Litlle Sparks" was rated as one of the best albums of an Irish band in recent years. Delorentos now presents "Little Sparks" in Spain, and we are happy to enjoy the great live. Sunday concerts at the Music Hall are usually quiet. The room is not very large, and usually does not fill, allowing you to be close to the artists and enjoy the clean sounds, with room to move without fear of prying elbows. Are you evil? That sometimes the people are little animated, not much is known about the group, and transmitted weak. Yesterday evening seemed to begin well, but not a trace with its intense final. Delorentos opened his concert with "Right to Know", and although not their best song, and began to teach what would be the night. Clean sound, well coordinated, and a very remarkable voice of Kieran McGuiness. We recommend you to take a look the video in this subject, a parody style programs "Diario de Patricia" to the British. No waste! The evening continued with Say You'll Never Love Her and change of singer. In fact, Kieran and Ronan were all night taking turns the spotlight on the bus. Then came Pace Yourself and delicate The Stream , with an almost acoustic sound that put the public with the creeps. After sensiblón moment came one of the best known: Care For . The public is finally waking up, the front rows and shameful before touching the stage, and most fans were looking for that look of complicity with the singer. Who more and who less, we were all jumping and humming the catchy chorus. Emphasize that "Care For", in addition to its acoustic version highly valued in the network, has also been used as soundtrack for promotional video of the Festival SOS 4.8. After this dose of excitement, the audience is quiet and the concert is with Petardu , and the wonderful Waited For You So Long . Start with a delicate solo voice and guitar, the keyboard is added, and finally the bass. With this theme Delorentos maturity teaches us that it has acquired with his third album, and actually dare to evolve, to seek new types of sounds. And at this point I have to stop to flatter the voices of the singers. Both Ronan and Kieran can boast privileged vocal cords. And slow songs in falsetto, with sharp outside their frame of mind, or dose of rock without losing any sound amplitude by the cry (as happens to many). These guys can with everything. We continue with the show, and finally, Editorial. For me the most powerful of their second album. A dose of force that pulled the palms (a tradition that I never liked, because even encourages artists, dirty sound as could be). The rush is on, and Delorentos will not stop, so dovetailed into the next topic Do You Realise , Kieran jumps to the dance floor and a dose of guitar playing to a meter. Spectacular. Now come the catchy Give It Up Now , and Bullet in a Gun , a song that tell us that recorded after first went to Madrid. For the next issue we ask that we become a little crazy, a sort of Irish tradition. We do, we errands, so jump in SECRET ... Ronan and this time the skipper with his guitar, hugs one of the biggest groupies on the track (I plead fan of this girl), and ends the song wrapped in an envelope collective excitation. Nothing left to finish and it seems that the intensity does not decay at any time. Did We Really Ever Try the first single "Little Sparks", and Stop are as follows, and finally Basis of Everything . Conciertazo! Seeing what I have dwelt in the article, and if you have taken a few minutes to read, and clear my opinion will have on the group. The truth is that yesterday I was very positively surprised. The concert was the very best I've seen lately, and the fact that it was amplified in a small space the energy of the band. While some songs may be too facile Delorentos, one can notice the improvement in the group with each album, and "Litlle Sparks" for me and is becoming a remarkable album. best: the voices of the singers I worse, some attending the show, they forgot to shower the night before. If you like you will like Arcade Fire , The Cure , Bloc Party , The Clash , The Pixies , The Coronas . Source: leomonfrog.blogspot.com.es/2012/04/concierto-de-delorentos-en-la-sala.html

It's likely that I won't be able to go to JD Roots if I can't get work off. Then I'm flying to Edinburgh on the 1st June at 6am so Leixlip is a no go and I'm flying to Poland on the 10th of June in the morning so Ballymahon is a no go.
Weh!
