## Resource

As Dalymount Park prepares to say goodbye after 123 years, a star-studded farewell concert series sent fans into nostalgic overdrive — culminating in an emotional surprise headliner: folk legend John Francis Flynn. Moved up the bill at the last minute, Flynn delivered a haunting, soaring set that opened with “The Wind That Shakes the Barley” and paid tribute to late uilleann piper Paddy Keenan. His performances of “Kitty” and “My Son Tim” — the latter featured in Guy Ritchie’s “The Gentlemen” — left the crowd breathless. Amid buzz about big names like Fontaines DC or Kneecap, and even Oasis’ merch connection, the night was unexpectedly anchored by quiet brilliance — including a last-minute addition, concertina player Cormac Begley. As the historic stadium stood weathered and ready for demolition, Flynn’s music perfectly captured its soulful, bittersweet farewell.
