Dolan’s have confirmed that The Saw Doctors will be playing the Milk Market on Friday, May 12. The year 2017 will mark the end of a three-year period in which Saw Doctors did not play live shows as they are now confirmed to play live in Limerick’s Big Top. Tickets are on sale from 9am today, Wednesday 14 and are retailing at €25.

2016 saw a series of cancelled concerts for The Saw Doctors such as Dublin’s Olympia theatre, Killarney INEC, Athlone Radisson and Galway Seapoint due to frontman Davy Carton becoming ill and requiring a minor throat operation from which his damaged vocal chords needed time to recuperate and rehab. Thankfully 2017 will see the Saw Doctors getting back on track with their new UK tour and a series of live gigs and shows along with a fully recovered Davy Carton.
