    Hi Guys,

    Looking for a trad session this Friday night for some overseas visitors in the city centre area? Any ideas?

    Thanks,

    Davitts on Camden St is good if they are staying southside. Cobblestone on the northside. Or the tourist version- Gogartys in Temple Bar.

    one of the few authentic places.

    the Celt plays a little trad but the speakers are too large for such a small pub and whenever they sing it sounds distorted.

    I was at the Merry Ploughboy in Rathfarnham. they actually played the anthem at the end which is do not hear very often in Dublin as it is apparently a bogger thing to do.

    Gogartys is one of those pubs where even the barstaff are not Irish.

    It's not a trad session anymore. Afaik the trad guys left a while back. Only the Wed night session remains and it is for general walk-in players and only accommodates about 10 at most :)

    Where did they go?


    As regards Gogarty's and other tourist places:
    A trad session should never have amplification ! :eek:
