see you? *shakes fist*

although with the upcoming decades festival, this thread might be somewhat useful for reminding us of some classics they could do with reviving over the weekend?

i know, that was a hell of a stretch to make it limerick related somehow, lol, thread title may be changed at mods discretion though Dave...

Its kinda lacking in info and people are making plans for the June Weekend

Is there family/kids stuff on

kenoconnell · 20-05-2012, 20:46

Hey Big Pink,

Just getting things organised last week so should have lot more info the start of the week....

All night gigs so don't think theres anything for the kids or family on this one...

Were in O'Connells having Boogie Wonderland on the saturday night and 80's 90's 00's Back to School Party on the sunday...

All places will be themed and will be fancy dress so the more that support the better it will be...

will try post up more info as soon as can.

Ken

bazz26 · 20-05-2012, 22:19

Good decision I think. Google market quarter and the Website comes up www.themarketquarter.ie with Mardi Gras 2011 and what a fiasco that was. There is no mention of this "Festival", the least they could do is update the website. I was in a few of the places listed on the facebook page last weekend. Chaplins bar man didn't know anything about it and we didn't stay long there anyway as the crowd is way rough. A sister was talking to one of the managers in Angel Lane - he said they weren't doing anything and he was saying that their name isn't even spelled correctly on the facebook page. 5 places are doing a DJ with no bands and 2 are doing food as far as I can see. Bit of a stretch calling this a Festival.
