It is the first of many pleasant surprises.
The Sugar Club may be one of the only place I enjoy going to in Dublin for live music. It looks like a cinema-theatre, a place where everyone can see what is happening on the stage while being seated. Amanda confirms later on her appreciation of the venue “This looks like fucking civilized”. The gig was sold out, which was no surprise because this is the front woman of the internationally known punk cabaret band “The Dresden Dolls”.
