From: Tattie Bogle We went to O'Shea's on Merchant Quay this time last year and had a great evening: seemed to be a resident band rather than a join-in session, (but plenty of chorus songs), although there were a number of people changed in and out of the band at various stages. Don't be put off by the disco on the corner, the door to the session bar is a bit down the street leaving away from the Quay. TB |

It's near the river in that touristy area the name of which I forget. If it's singing you want, check out the Goilin Singers Club. Cheers, Michael |

You can npw get the Luas (Tram) Red Line Connolly-Tallaght to Hughes (Four Courts) and the Cobblestone (Smithfield). Cobblestone is very good all day sunday. |
