Everyman, Saturday
The late starts at the Everyman were a talking point at the Cork festival this year, and it’s certainly hard to imagine some of the acts traditionally associated with the old listening venue surviving a close-on 11pm curtain. There are, however, acts that are perfect for this time of night, when the crowd arrives in, shall we say, a particular frame of mind. And, thankfully, Seun Kuti and Africa 80 are one such.
