English punk rock band Buzzcocks really brought the energy to the Academy on Saturday night. They’re currently on tour and made four stops in Ireland. Their high energy filled the room and had everyone rocking out all night.
The night started out with punk rock band from Belfast, The Outcasts. Lead vocalist Greg Cowan had the crowd laughing from the very start with his witty jokes and one liners including individuals in the audience to really engage the crowd. They played a highly energetic set and really got the crowd ready for the night ahead.
