Heard Ray Darcy talking about the "unmasking" this morning...

bamboozler · 16-12-2010 10:52am

which one is Blind boy and which one is chrome?

16-12-2010 10:58am

Some say,

wikileaks refuses to publish their whereabouts, because rubberbandits have dirt on Assange.

Others, that they are the one thing standing between Limerick, and nuclear war.

(Thirty years ago / In 1980), two ladz was sent to st patricks by a juvenile court for a crime they didn't commit. These boyz promptly escaped from a maximum security unit to the Limerick underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as riders of horses. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them on iTunes, maybe you can buy... The Rubber Bandits.

1980 was 30 years ago

vkid · 16-12-2010 12:36pm

nickobrien1986 · 16-12-2010 7:13pm

forget the identity of the Rubberbandits.
the more important question is who is that RIDE in blue in their video? who is she??? dang shes fine!

Insect Overlord · 16-12-2010 7:20pm

Who, Madeline? Her name has been mentioned here a few times already. She's a sound girl, probably doesn't need the Irish Internet community leering over her though.

realdanbreen · 16-12-2010 7:22pm

We're just ordinary blokes.

Im pretty sure she wants the exposure she does modelling/all that socialite scene
Using her name might not be a good idea

RonMexico · 16-12-2010 8:16pm

I heard that when there is a full moon one of them changes into a greyhound and the other one changes into a horse.

Her name is all over the internet already. She is a model that would be fairly well known to people.

kilburn · 16-12-2010 8:18pm

That's a pity.

Seems we can put any amount of corruption from FF but any comedians will have their identities revealed in no time.

'corruption from FF' Every gob****e in the country uses this lazy line.
Can you name a political party that has done more for this country in the last 30 years?

Oh well.

Jigga · 17-12-2010 2:23pm

There was no need for the Indo to that, everyone around Limerick knew anyway. Piss poor journalism, Bary Duggan just proving what a grade A cunt of the highest degree he is.

hi_im_fil · 17-12-2010 2:39pm

Does it really make a difference if people know who they are? As long as they refuse to do interviews out of character it wont make any difference

irishleedsfan · 17-12-2010 2:40pm

With all the corruption in banks and politics and such things in this country the indo decide they will try to wreck the opportunity for two up and coming comedians. Barry Duggan has the cheek to call himself a reporter. :mad:

Tefral · 17-12-2010 2:41pm

Bad form out of the Independent. What ****e journalism is that. Its not like it was a massive secret or anything.

I suppose in one way it shows the lads were educated (which we all knew) and not scummers like people thought which is a plus.

But thats ****e, like the Limerick Post did an article on them a few years back and kept it secret. Hope the person who "ratted" them out to the paper feels good about themselves.:mad:

the drifter · 17-12-2010 2:55pm

i cant wait for the bandits next song "Barry Duggan"

sceptre · 17-12-2010 3:24pm

Very poor form to do the reveal. Everyone else in Limerick managed to keep their gobs shut.

You can't really expect much more from Duggan though. He's a hack.

It's honestly a mystery to me why anyone would buy the Indo, the sooner the internet kills it off the better.

It's not like their identities are going to mean anything to anyone that doesn't know them. An example of the lazy journalism that Willie was talking about.

Get something else to write about Barry...

Knew it read wrongly the first time!

Wonder why the reporters did a "name & shame" on the RBs and didn't do likewise on the various Golden Circles and real-life high-level scumbags ?
