I got an email off Ken this morning to check out a comment on Sound System Podcast 21. The comment was left under the username Briain and was a bitter little rant in relation to myself, Daw, Ken and Boo judging this years Battle of the Bands. Every year, some people end up unhappy after […]

As the dust begins to settle after Cannibal the Musical and post-show blues kick in (it’s double post-show blues this time because we didn’t have time after Heart Shaped Vinyl), there’s still one thing the Devious bunch have been looking forward to and were a little nervous about; what the press will say.
The Kilkenny Voice […]

It’s hard to believe, but it’s all over!? Word of mouth continued to spread about Cannibal the Musical and the audience numbers continued to grow for the Friday and Saturday night performances. I haven’t got an exact figure yet but I’m guessing well over 750 people came and saw Devious Theatre’s Cannibal the Musical over […]

I’m a huge fan of Simon Pegg, and anybody who’s a big fan of Shaun of the Dead should check out the graphic novel version of the film. I recently picked up a copy from Play.com and even though I’ve seen the film countless times and the book is pretty much identical, I still laughed […]

The Arts Festival started over the weekend, and the town is full of tourists, artists and exhibitions. Not that I’ve had a chance to go check out anything just yet, this weekend was another hectic one for all the KilkennyMusic staff. I did see some street performers yesterday (pictured above), you can’t see it but […]

Now it begins, Devious Theatre’s promotion campaign for our upcoming production of Trey Parker’s cult classic Cannibal the Musical just kicked into overdrive.

Sunday was the 2nd Heat in this years Kilkenny Battle of the Bands, with three more bands (Desecration, Mantra, Atrax Mantis) taking to the stage to battle it out and things are really starting to heat up. It’s not going to be easy for myself, Ken, Daw and Boo to judge this year when there’s […]

I missed the OneTake Sessions on Thursday, due to the fact that I was sick as a dog. I’m told it was another great night of free entertainment, I’m looking forward to hearing some of the tracks on the upcoming Sound System Podcast. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, “we’re back!” with the Sound System […]

Here it is people, the long awaited poster for Devious Theatre’s upcoming production of Trey Parker’s ‘Cannibal the Musical’.
I’ve mentioned the poster photoshoot before but I was delighted when I opened my email today and saw this masterpiece created by Mr Paddy Dunne (that’s him on the far right hand side). We did the shoot […]
