    Hi Folks, I'm looking to bring some friends, that will be visiting me from abroad, to a Pub locally, that does regular live music - Tired of DJ's etc ...
    Any Recommendations of a Pub or Band ?
    Thanks.

    All the classic ballads and sing a longs.

    The Strawberry Hall has music several nights of the week. Generally trad fridays.
    My brother's band has played in the Paddocks a couple of times, so they must have regular music too.

    EDIT: If its the bank holiday weekend your friends are here, I think there's music upstairs in the Carpenterstown Inn

    Technically not in Dublin 15 but the grasshopper in clonee does have live music every weekend. If the weather is good it will be outside the front of the pub. Great atmosphere on those sunny summer evenings :)

    There is a trad night every Wednesday night in the lounge to the side of the Clonsilla Inn which is very good also. Bands are excellent at the Inn on Fridays and Saturdays...
