Viagra Boys / Boko Yout – The Infinite Anxiety tour 2025 live gallery & review from 3Olympia Dublin 02.05.2025

It was full on punk last night at Dublin’s 3Olympia with Viagra Boys and its been a long time since I have seen a band lift the people out of their seats in the balconies of the venues, right from the get-go they were on their feet and pints were flying over heads lol thats punk for ya! Would we have it any other way nah! Not a chance. Pints might of been flying but like all good punk shows and crowds everyone was there to have a good time and respect was shown to all there.

The band themselves played a bloody blinder set of eighteen songs give the baying crowd everything that they wanted. Sebastian had the shirt off right from the start, well it wouldn’t be Sebastian now would it to be wearing a shirt lol. yielding a mic in one had and a can of Peroni the other from most of the show Sebastian delivered even song flawlessly and the band backed him up fantastically.
Anyone heading to the second sold out night (both nights sold out) tonight are in for one hell of a treat and a riotous time.

Be sure to get in early and catch the support act who are Boko Yout, a bunch of guys from Sweden lead by Paul Adamah and as he dubs the band as Afro grunge. I wasnt to sure as the guys started up and the first song didn’t catch me, but once they got into things after that these guys are well worth seeing live and got things nicely fired up for the main course to come.
