Well we had never been to that place before! It was a big area on the roof with a 5 foot wall! Just took lift to 8th floor and there it was.

I am sure I read something saying they expected 4000 but guess it was part of the hype to sell tickets?

Apparently members of the band have taken time out to raise families!!! (Or perhaps better to say their popularity has waned?)

The Corrs played in the Toon some years ago, and the mother was there and she passed away that night.

She had a donor card and my mate does the tests on livers and stuff, he's a professor / doctor type.

And yeah, imagine my shock as well when he came out with that gem.

that's a great party talking point..

I could imagine dropping that one into conversation over the dinner table when 'Breathless' starts on the background music..

Even better if the starter is chicken liver....

I assume it's common knowledge that Andrea Corr was a particularly close companion of a certain married Irish rock star for several years?
