Incident at Lost Lane on Saturday

Jamie2k9

It appears the so called "new Irish" are causing trouble again but nobody is prepared to call it out but those are quiet happy to pose for a photo when the time presents itself. Dublin is becoming more like London everyday.

Dublin gig headlined by Naira Marley shut down after 'gang of 30 young men' flee from scene as man arrested and weapons seized

A Dublin gig headlined by African artist Naira Marley was shut down by gardai last night after a gang of youths were spotted fleeing the scene.

The incident unfolded at Lost Lane just off Grafton Street before the headline artist took to the stage to perform.

A video seen by Dublin Live shows up to 30 young men running out of the premises in the early hours of Sunday morning, with revellers of the adjoining pub looking on in confusion.

Longitude festival is probably best to be avoided, seems to be turning into a scrote fest.

Gardai are party poopers.

An assortment of weapons including hatchets, knives and petrol bombs were found when the gang dispersed.

Could have been lit

I spent the weekend bringing people to and from Marlay Park and while there was a lot of underage drinking, the vast, vast majority seemed very well behaved, enjoying themselves and being extremely messy, but not in any way violent or malevolent.

knives, hatchets, petrol bombs

What's happening to this city, can the guards not put a stop to this?
It's only a matter of time before someone gets killed.

Jamie2k9

Makes you wonder had the US travel advise not blown up in the media on Friday would the guards have been aware or alert to this.

Suckit

And after the US Embassy issued a warning of potential violence in marlay park at longtitude. They should have said after longtitude at Marley... :pac:

Of course no mention of the nationality of the perpetrator as usual from RTE and the rest of the msm. Glad to be out of the country at the moment.

Where is Lost Lane, a long forgotten side street or something?

I'm lost. What's the connection with Longitude? Did something happen there? What were the US Embassy concerned about?

The nationality was probably white Irish like with most problems in Ireland.

Supposed to have gone to Lost Lane after Longitude according to the article. US Embassy warned about potential trouble regarding the festival

And from the Irish Times article

gardaí believe a number of people who were at Longitude festival in Marlay Park, Rathfarham had gone to Lost Lane to continue socialising. Gardaí further suspect the men who tried to rush the door of the venue had also been at the festival.

There is footage of Grafton Street last night

Where's the "hatchets, knives and petrol bombs"?

Gimme A Pound

I had read the RTE item all right. I'm just wondering what specifically the US Embassy was concerned about though. It's unusual for an embassy to make such a statement (unless something really really serious is about to go down). The Twitter video seems to be showing people having a good time.

Not disputing if there was trouble - but it's all kinda vague.

It was a Nigerian rapper playing there. Don't know many Irish who'd go to see a Nigerian rapper.

Gimme A Pound

The Irish Times article says up to 20 youths, Dublin Live says up to 30 youths. Someone quoted by Dublin Live said they were at the gig and didn't see this trouble.

Obviously there was trouble - the gardai weren't there for the good of their health. But there's a lack of information - not enough to come to a solid conclusion, from what I can see.

All hands up to them though the petrol bombs add a real Irish twist to this debacle

Most of the Nigerian/African rappers are absolute dog sh1te from my limited listening experience of them.

Incidences likes this will hasten the introduction of UK style “door policy” at clubs and bars

In a few years the cretins trying to storm Lost Lane will be lucky to be let into the local spar after 4pm with all the security outside.

What is the UK style door policy? I've always found clubs in the UK to be more lax when it comes to who they let in.

Makes a nice change from the usual white fella violence in Dublin like every Paddy's night, Halloween, Arthur's Day when that was a thing.

Apparently the bouncers got an awful hiding.

It was in the Irish Times.

No one was hurt, I think.

How do you think it should have been covered?

Dublin live has seen a video but can’t post it. Must be other videos out there.

That Irish times article is there true but I wonder was it edited before it published?

No mention on RTÉ yet though. That’s odd

Usually every little dispute in the likes of Dundalk or Monaghan is given the RTÉ treatment. Reporters on scene, analysis, prime time. Etc.

This was a fully armed gang on grafton st.

Hatchets knives petrol bombs and god knows what else.

You’d wonder is there some agenda here of distracting.

“Nothing to see here folks”. Why like?

Seemly the gang tried to gain entry to longitude festival but beat a hasty retreat when they saw the private security dog teams on duty ha

Any confirmation on what we're dealing with here? New Irish or ethnic cousins?

You mean a terrorist twist. Did they foresee themselves having to fight for their freedom to be served at the bar? That’s a new one to us I’ll choose not to integrate with that on a night out thanks...

A gang of black lads are gonna have a hard time getting in anywhere around town after this. I see a lot of "sorry lads not tonight" in their futures.
