<li>The official word on Ireland is &#8220;I don&#8217;t have a clue&#8221; &#8220;In January I went over&#8230; and was treated like a king&#8230; up to ten days ago, two weeks ago it was nothing but love. Then it was &#8216;we&#8217;ve got you covered for the first three shows, but the other two are up to you&#8217;.&#8221; In short, they are still waiting on the official word. In fact, much of the Q&;A after the announcements covered the controversy in great detail. (video recap coming soon)</li>
