Hi guys. If anyone's around templebar tonight (Thur 17 ), we'll be playing a warmup show for next week's Button Factory gig in The Hub, which is right next to it. The gig is part of the Trinity College Arts Festival and also features The Fontanels, who kick serious amounts of arse. . We've been keepin it fairly low-key as next week's gig will be the big one, but sure come on down if ya can make it. We've added a loada new songs to the setlist and also, since we last played in Dublin, we've gone to see Rage in LA which inspired our guitarist to take out a massive bank loan and buy Tom Morello's exact amp and pedal setup. The old gear did the trick but now we got the sound a lot closer. Anyways, might see some'a ya there.

tickets are 6euro from the arts block in trinity and 8euro on the door.
doors 8pm

Peace, etc..

How are tickets selling for this thing on Thursday? Was supposed to drop in to get tickets yesterday, but forgot then. Might drop in Monday if they going fast, otherwise it'll prob be Tuesday. Have to get to this, it sounds class.

As far as we know there wasnt to be any tickets, just pay in on the door. But I've heard mention that people have tickets for it. You'd be fine hopefully as long as you're there early enough. The place was full the last time but the capacity's bigger since the place re-opened, so...

What time would this finish at, roughly?
Just that Id have to get a bus home

Hopefully will be a taster for the real thing in the summer...

seanironmaiden

it's usually 11 or 11.30 but last time there the place was so packed they extended it til 1. But that was the only time I've ever heard of it goin on that late. You'll see an hour / hour and a half of Bulls If you've to get the last Dublin bus home I reckin

Nah its an 11 bus Id have to get from Busaáras, might still head along though and leave early.

Good luck with it anyhoo

By the way do you know yet of any other dates/venues you'l be doing, incase I dont make it?
