Hello all, and welcome to a new ongoing series of posts that we’re hoping will engage you, the Cranfans. Over the next few weeks, we will post some interesting articles that explore how The Cranberries Are Good And Good For You. Please let us know what you think of our little project by leaving us a comment. If you have any ideas for future articles, please send them to us at help@cranberries.com. The first in our series relates to:

The Concerts
It’s July 14, 1990, and you’re at Ruby’s in Limerick, Ireland. You’re one of 60 people in the audience. They Do It With Mirrors is the headlining band, but it is the opening act that has caught your ear. The singer is a young woman with a voice bigger than her own size! Someone tells you they are called....what did he say? Cranberry Sauce? Oh – The Cranberry Saw Us, and this is the first time that they have performed with their singer, Dolores O’Riordan. “Linger” is the opening song and it has stayed with you for almost 20 years now. From that point on you have managed to see the act dozens of times. Perhaps during their first UK tour in May and June of 1992. Was anyone at this concert recorded at the London Astoria II in February 1994? Were you lucky enough to catch them during their first ever American tour in June 1993? Or during their final tour with the Rolling Stones in 2003?  Share with us your greatest Cranberries concert experience, and how many times you have seen them perform.
