As it's been such a strong year for albums, then it should follow that there's also been such a multitude of fantastic live events too, and the list below proves this. It could honestly have been a Top 30 this year, such was the high standard, but I've somehow narrowed it down to just the 10. And next year is shaping up to be one of the best already too, as much as there is to be sad about the live scene (ticket prices, venues closing etc), we should enjoy what we have. 10.

December feels like the perfect time for a touch of nostalgia and what better way is there to feel festive than to look back towards childhood, which is where we find ourselves this evening with a trio of 80’s artists at an extremely windswept M & S Bank Arena.

Despite playing into a slight diagonal breeze, St Colm’s Ballinascreen ran in at half-time in much the better position. Eamon Conway was the star of the show firing points over at will, with Paul Cleary banging home the first half’s only goal. A pacy Martin Bradley incisive run and point opened the scoring for Ballinascreen in the 5th minute.

The scoreboard read 0-12 apiece as the match clock entered the red, but the men from the Orchard county dramatically stretched their necks over the winning tape with two very late scores. Clann Eireann manager Ruairi Lavery was a man in demand straight after guiding his side to a fantastic win. “Absolutely delighted!” he said. “What a game, I’m still trying to catch my breath. I’m still trying to process the game. “It was a great game of football that went right to the wire.

Derry’s first year back in Masters football, 2023, was certainly one to remember. Masters football (over 40s), of course, is for men of a certain vintage. For players with a few too many miles on the clock. The tired legs may be a tad slower than when once in their prime, but the heart pumps as strongly as ever. And, of course, it offers the opportunity to represent the greatest county in the country if not the world – Derry.

Vermont’s THUS LOVE are back with their second album, the follow-up to 2022’s critically well-received debut Memorial, which has seen the band go through some line-up changes, losing one of their original members before gaining a new bassist and guitarist, which resulted in a new band motto for the recording of this record, “If it’s not joyful, don’t do it.” And already the stepping stones to success are in place, they have recently announced some gigs supporting The Vaccines, this following...

In an alternative (and a much better and nicer) universe, we would be on our way to one of Manchester’s two Arenas tonight to see Art Brut. You see, back in 2005 if they would have only sold a handful (apparently they were just two short) more copies of single ‘Emily Kane’, they would have got a place in the Top 40, which would have led to them fulfilling their life’s ambition by appearing on (the still then relevant) Top Of The Pops.

Ryan Dougan’s late goal for Glen appeared to be taking it to extra-time only to see the O’Leary’s chisel out a late, late winning point. Newbridge joint-manager Gary Hetherington cut a delighted figure after the upset win. “For me, never in my wildest dreams did I think I’d be managing a side in an Ulster campaign,” he said. “It’ll be an honour and privilege to come up here and represent Derry. “It’s special to beat Glen, but every good run comes to an end.
