    ..Thats right, bring it back, to Galway.

    And no this post should not be moved to DJing as its a truly Galway City item.

    For those of you who dont know, the 'Sex Kitchen' was a friday night club in the castle salthill in the early 90's. The best of funky house and progressive tracks under a bose system with enough dry ice to make the current cold spell over the bay look amateurish.

    For those of you who ever there, heres just a few memories to get this resurrection off the ground..

    ..rumours there may be something in 2010...or so a birdie told me...so fingers and funky 90's gear crossed.:cool:

    Who ran it do you know?

    I think there would be a market for this. Galway caters for most music tastes except for dance music in general, so having something like this would appeal to a market not catered for. Interesting times ahead, i know I'd like a consistant dance music scene rather than the odd acts the GPO manages to book.

    I forget who ran it..was it Owen F?

    Who ran it do you know?[/Q

    Tommy Byrne and Margarite

    Oh yeah that would be magic!!! I used to love climbing out my bedroom window and sneaking down haha... What a great laugh!!! :D oh the memories... They'd have to change the front back again though!!!
    Doesn't Tommy live in Dublin now anyway? And doesn't he own the right to the name? So a little birdie told me :D

    Am reliably informed that this can be done. Will mention it to the right peeps. In the mean while start up a facebook group with some decent venue suggestions and it'll go from there. Could only see it being once a month tho. Unfort marguerite has herself a super job in LA now but Tommy would be well up for some sort of revival.

    There's already a Facebook page - "Bring back the Sex Kitchen!!!"
    That place just rocked, plain and simple. Age of Love being the track that always brings me back.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,252 ✭✭✭✭Madame Razz


    Am reliably informed that age of love set a speaker on fire at one point; I'll pass on the enthusiasm for a revival :D

    Can't see Doc agreeing to that!! But it would be a good place though :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,239 ✭✭✭KittyeeTrix


    What I wouldn't do for a good friday night again in the Sex Kitchen.
    Tommy was amazing and the atmosphere unlike anything:D

    A revival would be unreal........
    Don't know if the old body could move quite as well as it did back then tho':(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,032 ✭✭✭McTigs


    Doesn't Tommy live in Dublin now anyway?
    Tommy is back living in galway but to honest i doubt he'll ever get behind the decks again on a regular basis.

    a one off maybe but there is no way he'd start up the club again

    a one off would be great craic though, i'd say most people would drop everything to be there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 227 ✭✭happyoutish


    I asked a few friends about this over the last few days and they all loved the idea! It would be great but anyone know if Tommy would be up for it?

    The Oasis is empty but a kip inside.

    You could be right, I may have got it arseways :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 939 ✭✭✭Aurora Borealis


    I would have thought it did but not 100%, all kinda merged together into some fantastic dance happy memories. Good times!

    You should not be able to remember _if_ you were there.
