The original band members, including singer/songwriter Liam Reilly whose song “Summer in Dublin” will be treasured forever in the hearts of all Irish people, are excited about performing in Portlaoise and having this opportunity to bid a final farewell to their many friends and fans as they play their last ever concert.
