FW’s Trad band are playing this Saturday night in O’Donoghues on Merrion Row, down from the Shelbourne.
Think there’s hopefully a few of us heading in, offer open to anyone if they’re about.
FW can confirm the time, think he said half 9 onwards

Sorry, answer to requests:
Yes: Streets of NY, Seán South, Grace, Let the People Sing, Green Fields of France, Rare Ould Times, Broad Black Brimmer, The Voyage, Joxer, blah de blah, so plenty of Tones/Christy/Fureys/Dubliners.
No: Rocky Road To Dublin, none of us know the complete words of that, I have to go learn it cos it is a terrific song. Don't know any Damo numbers either sorry to say, but I hope yiz will forgive us, we don't know fookin everything.
Ger the weather might rescue you if it rains the rest of the week.

ah well nobody's perfect just remember to walk down the road to the Barrow street bridge. Its the place where 113 years ago a few merry men decided to form a football club called Shelbourne. They tossed a coin to decide to call it either Bath FC or Shelbourne and after 13 league titles 10 cups 1 league cup and a 1st division throphy it looks like the coin toss worked out well.

Not all rugby supporters are w*nkers from D2 & D4 but your right a good few of those fookers will be around the city, just hope they stick to their usual areas and pubs in the likes of Donnybrook.

Great little gig but didnt get to see too much.
