No 1 David Gray adds second Point date
Fresh from conquering both the UK and Irish charts with his new album, Life In Slow Motion, David Gray is set for a double dose of Dublin.
The Hot Press Newsdesk, 19 Sep 2005
In addition to his date at The Point on December 1, he'll also be playing on Friday December 2.
Tickets for the new Dublin show will be €43.50 including booking, available at Ticketmaster and all usual outlets.
Sadly though, if you were planning to see him at the Belfast Waterfront on November 29, that's now sold out. So you can't. But thankfully there are some remaining tickets for his gig the next day, if that suits your social diary.

It’s been a long, hot, muggy day, but Galway’s weather still won’t piss or get off the pot. A short, sharp shower would actually be extremely welcome, but the heavily pregnant clouds just tease with the prospect of rain.

Are you ready for another massive David Gray hit that gets rotated to death by every mid-afternoon DJ on the planet? Well, we’re quite sure you’re going to be hearing a lot of ‘The One I Love’ when it hits the airwaves later this August.

For the person in the eye of the storm, massive success can involve a titanic struggle. Especially when, as you’re trying to keep your bearings, ordinary life jumps up to punch you in the teeth.
