Primal Scream visit Philip Lynott Exhibition
Bobby Gillespie was wowed by the Lizzy memorobilia!
The Hot Press Newsdesk, 28 Sep 2012
Following a blistering set at Dublin's Grand Social last night, Primal Scream's Bobby Gillespie paid a visit to the Philip Lynott Exhibition in Stephen's Green.
The Scottish frontman was given a guided tour around the expo, and exclaimed, 'This is too much!' as he was shown the famous, bling-tastic Lizzy sign (see pic).
Lynott fans can enjoy the host of material on offer until the end of the weekend, when the Exhibition sadly finishes up. For details, go to www.philiplynottexhibition.com/index.php, and read a full report on the 'Scream's Dublin performances in the next issue of Hot Press.

Having taken electro pop nihilism some distance past its logical conclusion on their unnecessary Evil Heat album – a bored rehashing of the landmark XTMR, with less tunes and more vowels. – the Scream throw a swerve ball with ‘Country Girl’, a lazy slice of Stone-derived country pop. It’s a tune with the air of something cobbled together from a garage sale yet, all the same, scrubs up a treat. You could bring it home to your mum.
