Congratulations to Adrian Crowley for winning the Choice Music Prize 2009 for his album Season of The Sparks earlier last night. A surprised, shocked and humble winner he was. A video of Jim announcing him as the winner is below.
Afterwards, the And So I Watch You From Afar juggernaut which shows no sign of stopping played a not-so-secret show in the Mercantile on Dame Street after their performance in Vicar Street, which was by-far and away the best short set of the night.
Here’s a pic of Tony ASIWYFA on the stacks in Vicar Street:
And one of the Mercantile show after the jump:

listening on the radio, asiwyfa’s performance blew the rest out of the water, they sounded fucking amazing.

Fair play to Adrian! could it be that it’s the season of the spark?
