Youād be a long time waiting for any one decent to play Dundalk.
I drove to Morrissey in Vicar Street during the summer. First time I drove to a gig.
Mighty job. Drinking at gigs like that can be tricky in terms of missing songs anyway and it was great to walk out to the car and drive straight home afterwards.

Since moving closer to Dublin, Iād also regularly get a bus or train to and from a gig. But on a work night, I like to get home earlier.
Meatloaf shunned it for Drogheda.

Nice article, that was my youth, we all drank in the Liberty with those lads, the sultans were a few years older but I was good pals with one of all their younger siblings, NOFs brother was one of the best, maybe the best, underage players in Cork,
My missus worked in the Liberty all through college, it was an incredible place, shut down as an unsafe building after a massive storm around Christmas in the early 2000s, Mick invited regulars to come in and drink it dry but I didnāt actually have the heart to go in, it nearly broke my heart
Great great days
The writer of that article wasnāt in the scene, pretty sure he went to college in Dublin, but his you Ger brother remains a great pal of mine

Donāt know if you use toutless but this is handy if you want to get notifications about the particular thread.
What is the difference between bookmarking and subscribing?
In phpBB 3.0, bookmarking topics worked much like bookmarking in a web browser. You were not alerted when there was an update. As of phpBB 3.1, bookmarking is more like subscribing to a topic. You can be notified when a bookmarked topic is updated. Subscribing, however, will notify you when there is an update to a topic or forum on the board. Notification options for bookmarks and subscriptions can be configured in the User Control Panel, under āBoard preferencesā.
