Next one is in Germany.

I've just got back from a fantastic week-end over in Dublin and watched the Ireland : Cameroon game on Saturday morning. Basic summing up re the Roy Keane episode was aptly put by the Irish Press on the Sunday

"ROY WHO?"

Other highlights of the trip were the following sessions:

Devitt's on the Thursday night
Brazenhead on the Friday night
Grace's in Rathmines on the Saturday night
Mother Redcaps on the Sunday afternoon

The only disappointment musically was the "live session" in Oliver St.John Gogarty's - two guys, one playing pipes the other a fiddle. Both obviously bored out of their skulls, a tune followed by a ten minute break, followed byanother tune followed by a ten minute break, etc, etc. No attempt to make contact with their audience (they actually played with their backs to the audience). They might have just as well being playing at home - no entertainment factor associated with it what so ever. Best comment on the performance was made by one of the company - You've just witnessed the longest wank in history.

Cheers,

Bill.
