One word: Recession.

:P

It wasn't two weeks last year. It was two weeks in 2007.

The first week is Fresher's Week, and the second one is "Welcome Back" Week.

I heard an awful rumour that the reason they divided it was because maynooth has a reputation as a party college... god knows where they got that idea :eek::P

Rozabeez · 22-08-2009 10:28pm

Well, we're no Galway but we do like the odd drink.

Michellenman · 22-08-2009 10:33pm

What kinda odd drinks do you like Roz? I'm all for the Ethiopian tap waters :P

Calvin Harris playing freshers? Where? The amount of people who'll want to go to that will be ridiculous, there's no way they'll fit them in the venue.

Calvin Harris sounds a bit mad tbh. Normally its like Mickey Joe Hart or republic of loose (AGAIN).

ROFL at people going to that

Rozabeez · 22-08-2009 10:37pm

He played the Trinity Ball, which costs money... there's no way we'd get him.

Not. A. Hope.

Rozabeez · 22-08-2009 10:39pm

If we did, I'd drug him and marry him. Oh yes.

If I buy you a drink will you let me in on the action?

you'd think with the second highest population of Donegalian's (or what ever the prefered term is) outside Donegal, we could get mickey joe, or failing that get wee Daniel, his ma could cater it, scones and tea for everyone:D:D:D

sudzy · 23-08-2009 1:02am

Ah jaysus! Mickey Joe and Daniel... A freshers week to remember!
Still better than two-thirds of bewitched imho!

Except the Blizzards are pretty good. Not GREAT, but pretty good. However, that song, which I'd never heard before, is APPALLING APPALLING APPALLING.

Jimmy Iovine · 04-09-2009 3:19pm

Messiah J and The Expert have a gig in Maynooth down on their website for the 22nd of September. Should be good better than The Blizzards anyway

sudzy · 10-09-2009 12:04pm

Haha! They got the date wrong..

Kiwi_knock · 11-09-2009 9:29pm

Are you sure they'll be better? The place will be full of wiggers.

Can't even dance to that sh!t.

How about they get some decent Irish acts>>>>

Don't mind the weird vid. Cosmic Gate do a great remix of the song.

pisslips · 13-09-2009 1:58pm

Didn't they get Electric Six once, I thought that was quite impressive.

got a free ticket to the blizzards once, mother of god, it was worth going to just to see the sexiness of the lead singer. Musicaly not my thing, but visualy...mmmm....

Yes they did and the lead singer came out in a t-shirt with the Union Jack printed on it with 'Greece' in the middle, no one saw the joke and he was boo-urned senseless

LittleKitty · 14-09-2009 12:35am

PrivateEye · 14-09-2009 5:54pm

Never wear a t-shirt too clever for most people to get.
Its just, well, too clever for most people to get.
