    Anyone know any decent venues in Dublin that let you play for free?

    Preferably ones with a decent crowd, but if not one could always promote the **** out of it. :p

    Eamonn Dorans used to but that was a long time ago. Does Eamonn Dorans still exist? If so you could try there

    You'd be surprised. I know of two venues where you have to pay for the hire of the room and you dont get paid. :rolleyes:

    As opposed to paying the rent, charing on the door and keeping whatever you make in excess of the rent?

    Dorans has re-opened on Lesson St, but it's nothing like the old venue, they've a small room upstairs; no stage and not much in the way of in house PA.
