    Although my version doesn't have Don't Mind Me

    Shame as Don't Mind Me is the best song on the album in my opinion! :D

    I'm pretty sure I've had this album for over a year! What was the delay in them releasing it?! Although my version doesn't have Don't Mind Me but same cover. Did they self-publish it first?

    They recorded it and all that themselves yeah but never released it. They had it ready to go but then got signed. And Universal wanted them to re-record them or whatever as far as I know.

    They used to be called Saviours of Space, although that mightn't be of any help to you...

    Its on iTunes,can you not buy it from outside the country?


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,186 ✭✭✭kensutz


    For €7.99 you can't go wrong. It's a seriously good album and one that keeps growing on you. Listening to it at the minute.

    I can't find it on iTunes France anyway, it isn't on 7digital either.

    Keep all gigs/festivals/concerts/random acts of music in the one topic unless its a major event (like a 3 day festival etc).

    Topic Merged

    Is that not a bit pointless Sully? We all know that stickys aren't read by many people. And if that's the case wouldn't we have a sticky where all local news stories go and another where all service requests go etc. It's not like we have threads about events clogging up the entire forum every day - there's not enough going on and the forum isn't that busy.

    I really think gigs/events should still have their own threads. And about three of the posts you moved in here are for festivals that last three days or more!

    This was an admin choice a long time ago, as people were coming on and posting loads of different events/gigs etc. in the forum (and other regional forums) and some where not contributing elsewhere. Its a one stop shop for all the going ons in Waterford unless its a big gig/festival. A lot of people are reading the thread and using it, which is perfect. :)

    Any queries send me a PM so as to keep the thread on topic.

    15 Time World Champion Phil Taylor is doing a darts exhibition night in the Forum, Waterford on Monday the 18th of October.

    He will take on local players on the night and should be an entertaining night.

    Tickets are only €20 with €50 for VIP Tickets which include a pre match reception with Phil and front row Tables.

    Tickets can be bought from the Forum, Rapid Cabs on Parnell St, The Dome or from any of the players involved on the night.

If you are a publican and would like to have a game at your venue we can set you up with all equipment e.g Chips Poster Tables Flyers and a Tournament director to run the event each week .

    To Join the league Just play in any one of these games below The league starts from November, Each Leaague is diefferent per venue . We are expecting 1000+ players at the final in Killarney in February with a prizepool of over €100,000 . Each player who qualifies for teh game starts with 15,000 chips those who buy in start with 12,000 Chips .

    FINAL KILLARNEY 2011 FEB 10TH-13TH
    As Season 3 arrives for the Irish Amateur Festival Of Poker , We are now giving pubs/Clubs a unique oppurtunity to qualify for our Grand final in Killarney from February 10th-13th with an estimated prizepool of €100,000 . Season 1 and 2 We Guarnateed €65,000 and reached that target . In Season 3 we have changed things arround slightly with 500 tickets availble for Direct Buy in and 500 Tickets available to be won around the country . At the moment we have alomost 300 seats sold for direct buy ins so these tickets will be hot property .The Ticket Value is now €100 with a €25 Registration which can be paid on arrival , This gives us complete transparency for the players invoved . The biggest advantage to qualifying is that all players who qualify through a pub/club start the event with 15,000 Chips but any player that Buys in Directly recieves 12,000 Chips .Each part of the country has been divideded into sections for the purpose of qualiying players from there respective Pubs/Clubs and we have taken on plenty of venues to fill the seats available to ourselves .

    We are confident that all the venues that participated last year will want to do so again this year, and we are hopeful that we can add more venues this year and increase our prizepool to €100,000. We would ask that you recommend the league to other organisers or to contact us with any organisers/venues you feel would be interested.

We would like to invite you to enter your venue for the coming league, and we are very hopeful that you see the value in what we have to offer . You can find information here on how the league will run for the coming season, and I would like to say that I very much welcome any feedback you have on how we might improve it further. Please contact Neill Kelly from Big Slick Events to get your venue involved in this unique Poker League. If you are new to Poker and need a hand setting up a new venue we can provide each venue with all the essential tools to run a game, From Tables to Chips to Event Organisers . Poker in the Pub brings the game to you . Each Venue that is running must be associated with Poker in the Pub and we must get weekly updates from the pub/Club on results and Qualifiers . This then allows us to monitor the league and the placements with results . Also there is tournament director sectioned to most areas and if the pub is not listed as an Poker in the Pub Venue then those players will not be entered and only allowed the Direct Buy in option which only allows them 12k starting stack.

    If you have a pub or club that wants to enter the league please contact myself and i will send out all details to yourself or the venue , As it stands we have over 700 places reserved now in Ireland for this and we are capped at 1000 players

    Sounds interesting,

    quick question. How come the buy in's at the different venues are different. Like Lawlors would be allot closer for me but I'd play the €20 game before the €50 ya know?

    Also, can you just turn up on the first night?

    Yes u can just show up on the night .

    Buy ins are different to suit different players . Some are existing game that we have and others are new games ...

    The Dungarvan is the most expensive as its running 3 years ....

    We are looking for another game up that area and if u would like to set one up for it let me know

    Neill
