Live at the Marquee: Young and old all fall for Lana Del Rey

Given that it must have been a hellish week for Marquee promoter Peter Aiken, at least he might take a smidgen of solace from last night’s sold-out show for Lana del Rey. It’s a reminder that there really is life after Garth.

Not that the 5,000-strong crowd — encompassing a wide range of ages — who paid about €50 each for tickets here could recoup the gazillions that were on the table in the poker at Croker, but the closing night of this year’s series of concerts underlined what a success the Cork enterprise has been.

The strongest line-up of the event’s 10-year history drew decent crowds, the weather has played ball, and the Pixies were just one of the many acts who more than rose to the occasion at the venue to leave another legacy of sweet summer memories.
