Thanks to all who braved the "weather" and came out to Muldoon's Pub in Newport Beach last Saturday. This rare all acoustic show in a small setting is always a treat for us, especially with a packed house of OC Irish rock music fanatics! Lots to tell you about for February now... We have added a few slightly
"unusual" gigs...
On the
weekend of Feb 18th through 21st we will be doing the first shows of a
new project. It consists of Keith, Bob and Eric Rigler and is an
acoustic show very different from a Dubs show. We will play a few Dub
songs but it will also be full of instrumentals with pipes, whistles and
guitars and lots of Irish songs and surprise versions of contemporary
songs, played in a way you won't have heard before. Added to that will
be a healthy dose of stories, jokes and interesting revelations from
Erics movie soundtrack work. The whole weekend will be in Colorado.
Check the TOUR page for more details. Again seating will be very limited
at these shows so check with the venues for showtimes and the
possibility of advance purchase tickets.
Right after that the Dubs
March to St Paddys Day will start. BIG NEWS is that we will be back at
the House of Blues in Los Angeles on March 17th. Its been a while so we
plan to blow the roof off the place. Lots more info on that in the
coming weeks but meanwhile get your tix early (and a designated driver
might be a good idea too!)
The new album is now available to the whole world!!!
The album
is $18.99 in stores, but from our Store we are only charging $16 and,
for a limited time, only $2 shipping and handling. Grab your copy
today!
We wanted to let you know we have joined forces with a team of
professionals to create a real official Fan Club for those that may want
more involvement in all things Young Dubliner.
For a small, annual membership fee you will be able to gain access to
lots of stuff in the coming year. The membership kits alone will be
substantial but there will also be downloads, previously unseen footage,
memorabilia, etc. that has never been released. There will also be
member discounts on trips, gigs and merchandise throughout the year
along with special access to meet and greets with the band and VIP
parties. You will be sick of us !!!!
This is something we have wanted to offer for many years but up until
now we have never had the time to do it right. Our new partners will run
it for us now and all we have to do is show up !!!!
Of course we will still be updating our website and myspace pages as
usual and you will still have all the same access for free that you had
before. But if that's just not enough then this is for you!
Check out the website and see for yourself what new and exciting stuff
awaits. Pick your membership level and then come see us on the road this
summer.........
Our new single "Saints and Sinners" is gathering momentum at
radio.
This makes Bob's letter below even more important so
please check it out and give us a hand.
A Letter from Bob and a great idea !
Hey now Dubsters, Dubettes, and Dublinites!
Our new album,
"Saints And Sinners", is out and thank you (!) to everyone who has
picked up a copy since the release. We are on the rocky road for our
tours this year. The music is beginning to be played on radio stations
across the USA. Everything is looking "Rosie", but we need your help!
We need an 'armchair streetteam,' meaning everyone, to call or
email their local radio station and request the new Young Dubliners song
"Saints And Sinners", from our new CD "Saints And Sinners"! It's easy!

In memory of Alan Hirano - Musician,
Producer and Dear Friend.
On Thurs Jan 15th, our good
friend Alan Hirano passed away. Some of you may have met Alan at our
acoustic Muldoons shows when he was doing sound for us. He was a kind,
loving soul and we will truly miss him. Here is a picture of Alan on a
night out with Dave. Rest in Peace Al.
We have a list of every station in the country who has our CD. Click here for
our radio list. Just find your city or town, and next to each one
we put your local FM station, it's web address, and the phone number and
email address to contact and request the new Young Dubliners.
Just request us 2, 3, 4 times (or as often as you can!!) in the next
month... and in no time you should be able to hear our music on the air
whenever you're driving, washing the car, fixing dinner, or having a
pint. Become a super armchair member and tell 3 friends in other areas
to do the same!
And, this is the best way to get the Young
Dubliners to play live in your town - if we are on the radio, the local
promoters will book us for shows there. So you wanna see us play your
town? Call and email to request our song "Saints And Sinners" and we'll
be there!
Thanks for being a part of the armchair streetteam
and Irish rock in America. Cheers! -Bob and The Young
