Description:The Waterboys' frontman marks the launch of his memoir “Adventures Of A Waterboy” with an evening of readings from the book, followed by a short acoustic set with his Waterboys colleague, fiddler Steve Wickham. The Waterboys are best known for classic songs like “The Whole Of The Moon” and ground-breaking albums including “This Is The Sea” and “Fisherman's Blues”. Mike's devastatingly honest and beautifully crafted memoir describes the adventures of a rock'n'roll seeker in quest of musical frontiers; it is serious, funny, profound, whimsical, revealing and enigmatic. Following his path through teenage punk bands, the success of The Waterboys and subsequent experiences in New York, Scotland's Findhorn community and beyond, Adventures Of A Waterboy doesn't so much unravel the myths surrounding Scott and The Waterboys; it blows them to smithereens. Don't miss this rare and candid encounter, this is Mike Scott’s first visit to the Isle of Man.
