The Saw Doctors

“If The Saw Doctors could bottle the sort of bonhomie that can make an entire concert hall feel better, they would have the medicine show to end them all”. Paul Sexton, The Times The Saw Doctors were discovered by Mike Scott of The Waterboys on a stormy Tuesday night in  Galway in the 1980’s, plying their trade with more gumption than virtuosity in the back room  of The Quays Bar. Scott offered The Saw Doctors the support slot on The Waterboy’s Irish Tour  to launch the 'Fisherman’s Blues’ album in 1988 and before the tour was completed, Mike asked  The Saw Doctors to support The Waterboys on their six-week tour of Great Britain in Spring 1989.
