    Had a grrrrreat night.

    Fun was had by all and you guys played a stormer!!!

    Go deas!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 60 ✭✭El Chico


    Yeah it was a fantastic night and a fantastic party afterwards. How were the cops not called? Are there no police around at all these days? I walked all the way from the lads house to whelans and back absolutely pissed and wasted, swigging out of an open bottle of wine and not even so much as a big country hand on the shoulder.

    There wasn't even any scangers trying to rob my wine or beat me up or anything. It just doesn't feel like the real Dublin anymore


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 60 ✭✭El Chico


    and it was nice to finally put a face to a lot of you internet people.


    Especially Lucy. She's hot. ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,059 ✭✭✭memaeve


    We ended up walking from the house to Ballsbridge, no problems with skangers either....but wait....there was fuc*in' posh Foxrock bas*ards who caused a bit of a fuss 'cos we wouldn't go to their 'party'. It turned into a "but my house is worth this much" thing to try and convince us. Sweet Jesus.... :rolleyes:

    Hahaha I can't remember that but I wish I did!!

    Thanks to whoever's house it was I was in (I still don't know where I was tbh). I hope it didn't get too wrecked. I nearly killed myself on your stairs.

    steep stairs+high heels+an excessive amount of alcohol+god only knows what else=bad news

    I think I left about 10 cans in your fridge. That can go towards making amends for any damage that was done!

    Em...thanks El Chico...I wish knew who you all are! The only people I'll recognise again are the people I knew from before :(

    Our big promotional posters have hit the streets, any updates to where they put them would be cool. Hmv cork have not got the single yet but will have it tomorrow most likely. Hmv grafton and henry street and road records are stocked up in dublin, the record store in sligo have a good few also and trax in portlaoise. cheers for the support


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 60 ✭✭El Chico


    Lucy, you were in the beautiful losers house. I don't know why you don't know that, seeing as you went to see them play and then followed them home!

    I was only talking to you briefly, but I think I was talking to maeve for quite a while. But I really could have been doing anything. I was really ****ed up.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 60 ✭✭El Chico


    Everyone Buy the single

    Yeah I knew it was something connected to The Beautiful Losers, I just didn't know who exactly owned the house and where exactly it was. I don't know them you see-I went to see Polar primarily and they told us about the party (so no, I wasn't some total randomer who wandered in off the street not knowing anyone!). I'm glad I finally got to see the Losers! I'll try and catch them again when I'm less drunk though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,059 ✭✭✭memaeve


    For once it was up to me to remember names and faces, and I actually did it very well (by my standards :) ).
    Yea, I remember talking to you, (Conor, right?).

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 60 ✭✭El Chico

    i found loads of demos "last dance of the pagans" in the brog in cork... sounds good, and a good idea for publicity... good stuff


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 60 ✭✭El Chico


    A cracking bunch of songs that get better upon repeated listening. Well done lads, keep it up.
