A Magnificent Display of Bravery in Dublin Last Night

    Just when you think the world and life has no meaning, the human race, well upper middle class types from Renelagh and Dalkey mainly, stood socially distanced in a stunning and brave display of unified blandness and virtue signalling within the idyllic settings of the Iveagh Gardens last night.

    It was so magnificent and wonderful to behold. The beaches at Normandy had nothing on the valor and dignity shown by people who drive fully-loaded top-end 4X4 while telling us they are so "deeply concerned about climate change" coming out to give the nation - and indeed, the world! - hope during our darkest hour.

    The sound of the Fair Trade Organic Vegan Prawn Flavored Crackers artesean recycled packaging being opened could be heard all across south Dublin but loudest of all, as a cacophony of joy within our hearts.

    I'm sure they had a lovely time.

    Why does it upset you so? :confused:

    Yeah. Beautiful evening. Warm and sunny.

    This gig annoyed me to be honest. They closed off half of a lovely public park for 5 days, including bank holiday Monday to allow 500 people attend that last night. You’d get more than 500 people in there on a typical sunny day!

    It was a clinical trial!

    Camera pans behind Minister Catherine Martin, Francis Noel Duffy T.D. (her husband), Lord Mayor Cllr. Hazel Chu and Patrick Costello T.D. (her fiance).

    Nice if you can get the tickets to it.

    I see plenty of other people in the music industry are giving out as the tickets went to the great and the good, and there was no proper testing before or after the event.

    I suppose at least you didn't go Greta bashing.

    Quite refreshing.

    Ridiculous to call it a trial or test event when they arent trialing or testing anything


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 98 ✭✭NoLuckLarry


    This wasn’t a trial of anything, an event with 40k plus is a trial - not small groups of distanced people watching some ****ing shoegazer with a guitar like it was a back garden concert.

    They were trialing the limits of human compliance to see what redicolus rules they can impose on people desperate to return to a normal life.

    JVMM is not a shoegazer!
    Ffs.
    Don't use the term if you don't know what it means.

    Couldn't get a ticket?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,402 ✭✭✭McGinniesta


    Call me when I can start punching in the mosh pit and I can have a drink "inside the pub".

    There's plenty of parks with 10 minutes walk from the iveagh gardens. Relax.

    Probably upsets him since Satan only listens to Slayer.

    All eyes on Kursk. Slava Ukraini.

    Translated as... Rabble rabble rabble rabble rabble rabble.

    Although the sight of the insufferable Hazel Chu drives me into an immediate rage.

    The Iveagh Gardens wasn't a realistic test

    The attendees were kept very far apart and they arrived at staggered times.

    A Shamrock Rovers match with 1,000 spectators is more realistic..... or a packed Luas.... or an ice-cream van queue in Dollymount

    Slayer was a Christian band. Forewarning of the perils; of a society falling further toward hell
