Hall for Cornwall, Truro, Tuesday

Playing guitar is akin to breathing for Dubliners' veteran Eamonn Campbell. That's why you will find him up on stage at Truro's Hall for Cornwall on Tuesday, just weeks after major surgery for cancer.

"I have never done anything else with my life," he says. "Say lung cancer and everyone thinks you're dead and buried. But I'm still alive, so this is what I want to do."

His current tour represents another chapter in the history of the Irish folk heroes, who are now going out under the title The Dublin Legends. The group that began life 51 years ago is now without any original members so the name has been changed, but the music remains the same – Whiskey in The Jar, Dirty Old Town, The Wild Rover and Molly Malone. "We play what everyone wants to hear," says Eamonn.
