NO ENCORE

Rejoice! We're back in the studio! 

And we're joined from way out west by the returning Daithí and the debuting Peter Kelly, with both men in town to talk year two of Ireland's most unique and exciting new music and arts festival - Common Threads. 

The boys also take on a lively news section and list off their five go-to tracks that you simply must throw on when the party starts to fade and the dance floor begins to evacuate. 

Bangers only, naturally. 

ACT ONE: We discuss the return of Common Threads and what it’s all about with the two masterminds behind the new festival. 

ACT TWO (22:20): Marvel prove Dave's point, Elton John endorses Fontaines, Liam Gallagher loses the plot, and Jonker 2 draws ever closer - it's the news. 

ACT THREE (41:17): Top 5 Party Revivers

Not like romantic dates, you understand. The ones on your calendar, that's what we mean. 

And by 'we', we mean returning NO ENCORE original Colm O'Regan, who takes the co-host microphone up this week alongside Dave and Adam. 

Before we get to this week's hijinks, a reminder that our Patreon is booming with bonus content right now: 

Adam's latest Album Club is live and features a deep-dive into D'Angelo classic Voodoo, whilst Dave re-teams with Michael Pope for a brand new Film Club this Sunday, all about classic 1990 chiller Misery. Sign up at patreon.com/noencore for all extra audio. 

As for this episode right here, it breaks down thusly: 

ACT ONE (6:01): The week in music news takes in some feisty feud action in the world of rock as Jane's Addiction falls apart, Fontaines D.C. and Oasis throw some verbal broadsides at each other, and The Smiths do likewise. Meanwhile, Gene Simmons has his say, Mark Hoppus announces a new project, and music clashes with the beautiful game in doubly odd fashion. 

ACT TWO (33:14): Top 5 Songs About Dates

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Grab the overpriced popcorn and get ready to suffer through the songs and sounds you wish marketing departments and music supervisors would just leave well enough alone. 

Dave and Adam are joined this week by Andy McCarroll, host of the excellent Extra Vision podcast and certified movie lover (and hater, should his vitriol prove valid), to navigate the creatively bankrupt world of lazy needle drops that are deployed way, way too often. 

We've also got a packed news section that takes in everything from surprising infidelity to a highly divisive comeback. 

Don't forget, you can get this and every new NO ENCORE episode 24 hours early and ad-free, AND additional bonus audio content by signing up to Patreon.com/NOENCORE.

ACT ONE (6:05): Taylor Swift endorses Kamala Harris, Dave Grohl has a confession to make, Linkin Park unveil a new singer and weather a storm of controversy in the process, Kendrick Lamar gives Drake a reason to skip next year's Super Bowl, Fyre Festival 2 is GO, the Blur/Oasis feud reaches its natural end point, and Dave and Adam ponder a road trip - it's the news. 

ACT TWO (42:46): Top 5 Overused Needle Drops.

ACT TWO (12:38): Oasis fallout, Brad Pitt strangeness, Britney Spears cinematics, Nick Cave scrutiny, Jonker 2 hype, and the verdict on The Crow 2024 - it's the news.

A national emergency (not really) provokes a bonus NO ENCORE (yes, really) as Dave Hanratty attempts to wrap his head around the great Oasis ticketing scandal of 2024. 

What a difference a week and some last-minute dynamic pricing make, eh? Last Saturday has been and gone, and so too have the hopes and dreams of many crushed Britpop fans. 

As for those who found their way to the top of a very long queue? Well, they either walked away in protest at a sudden colossal spike in ticket prices, or they're going to be budgeting hard for the next month to come. 

Call it dynamic pricing, call it an 'in demand' ticket, call it the price of doing ruthless business, call it plain old greed - whatever the phrasing, Liam and Noel Gallagher find themselves counting an awful lot of cash as many disgruntled fans suffer the cost. 

On this episode, Dave is joined by Jim Carroll, RTÉ Brainstorm editor and former (well, mostly) outspoken music journalist of renown, to examine the questionable mechanics of the Mancunian money machine.

Sink your teeth into an irresistibly tasty episode of NO ENCORE as the great Fionnuala Jones returns to the co-host microphone in a bid to rescue Dave from his post-Blink-182 hangover. 

We've got the full review of the Mark, Tom, and Travis Show: Dublin Edition, as well as the sweetest songs that money can help produce. 

And speaking of Blink, our upcoming Album Club keeps the focus on the punk trio, with Adam's ode to comeback album One More Time landing on the Patreon feed this Sunday.

ACT ONE (3:49): Dave and Adam review the Blink-182 gig, the Oasis reunion prompts some full-blooded commentary, Macklemore continues to be sound, Charli XCX distances herself from politics, and Machine Gun Kelly calls out Randy Orton - it's the news.
