"Are they still alive?"

The ultimate night in Dad rock history has been declared.

Legends Deep Purple and Lynyrd Skynyrd have confirmed a double headliner gig at Dublin’s Point Theatre on June 24, with both bands playing full sets.

So get those leathers out of the attic, wrap a bandana round your head, dust off your vinyl collection and get ready to rock it like you did 30 years ago.

Groovy, maaan.
