Lovingly captured on on a videogramatical cylinder this performance formed part of Leviathan in the Mind Field at The Electric Picnic on September 5th 2009. This marked the performance debut of the song “Hey Brian”.
The Emergency: Live will perform in Leviathan: The Political Cabaret as part of Mind Field @ The Electric Picnic on Saturday September 5th starting @ 4:30pm.
The Emergency Live: L-R Morgan C Jones, Karen Ardiff, Joe Taylor, Dermot Carmody*
This will be the first time the full cast of The Emergency appears onstage together (though we came pretty close to it back in the Trim Swift Satire Festival ). Dermot Carmody, Morgan C Jones, Karen Ardiff, Nick McGivney, Joe Taylor and Eoin Byrne, will perform a full-length live version of the radio show onstage. Just without the radio. But with visibility. Material will include songs and sketches from already broadcast radio shows as well as brand new script never before heard or seen (or indeed, written at the moment). Read more »
From The Emergency an appeal to Brian Cowen to come off it as we head back towards engagement. Altogether now: “Na-na-na NAMA NAMA; NAMA NAMA. Hey, Brian!”
Recorded by Paddy Meegan at Hollywood Studios
