ORAN MOR

Apologies to all for the dedications that people asked for and we didn't get to make, there was a strict curfew of 10pm because of the club night and Oran mor were good to let us finish our set. 

Ideally we would play on and on but we were given 1 hr 45 and had to stick to it.

What a night it was in the Big Shop in Glenboig. Nearly 3 hours of music with classic after classic. We even had Hugh O'Neil giving us a tune.

The Silencers are a Scottish rock band formed in London in 1986. Their music is characterized by a melodic blend of pop, folk and traditional Celtic influences. Often compared to Scottish bands with a similar sound like Big Country, Del Amitri and The Proclaimers, The Silencers have distinguished themselves with their eclectic sounds, prolific output and continued career. 

Their first single, "Painted Moon," was a minor international hit and invited critical comparisons to Simple Minds and U2.

 In 1987 they released their first album A Letter From St. Paul, which included "Painted Moon" and another minor hit, "I See Red." Buoyed by the huge European hit "Bulletproof Heart", the band's third album Dance to the Holy Man is the band's commercial peak to date. 

In the 1990s The Silencers saw popular taste shift away from their songwriter-based style of music toward grunge and electronic music. They released a regular stream of albums.
