Ooly

Where about in Leitrim is it on?
Jeez most bands playing in the poo promotions thing are all familiar to the trades in sligo,
When did Global Underground start playing again????

Ro: maaan!

Most asked question over the last few weeks: Where in Leitrum is it?

Pinhead

It's in Drumshambo.

Ooly

cool, never actually been to Drumshanbo so good excuse to make a trip up........ sori had to ask where it was cuz i didn't see it on any of the posters (",)

its 5 minutes outside a village called Kesh Carrigan
20 minutes away from Carrick, 20 minutes away from Drumshanbo, 20 minutes away from Mohill

Rancid

Plenty of parking space too, I assume?

yeah, should be lots, its a big site.
If theres not, there will be nearby
email the organisers if you want to make sure

leechrum@planet-save.com

was wrongly informed bout the location of the event
its outside drumshanbo, not kesh
the map im gonna put up is fairly straight forward, but if you cant follow it, just ask one of the locals
cheers to the guy from poo promotions who gave me this outside whelans lastnight

do any of you know how to add in an image to your message, the map is saved in jpg format, i cant seem to figure it out

dimerocks

i really wish i was going, its going to have to be next year that i make the trip upand get bladdered in clancy's after a good weekend of rocking.

after hearing from one of the lads down there, that if you see one the locals ask then where Pious Early lives (hes obviously the guy whos land there using), thats where the festival is

how redneck is that

dimerocks

ahh mercy ijust heard from captain insano that they were no allowed to play,poorly organsed i reckon but still leitrim!!!

tony 2 tone

I heard that the guards shut them down as they had no licence, from one of the bands that was ment to have played.

dimerocks

ohh really,thats really poor form.i thought leitrim was like a principality

dimerocks

the webiste appears to have been taken down too

It did start...eventually. there was music for most of Satrday night and most of Sunday from what I've heard.

dregin

Yeah there was music all night Saturday until 7am.
It ****in rocked. The only bad thing was the fact that Complan had to cancel and that ****in naked ****. Was so much fun though, great food too. Took a trip into a ditch..............

Zyox

**** *** ***** *** **** tbh.

Red Soup

it ended up being a hippy drug fest cause of the lack of music. i'd say only 20 of the 60 bands ended up playing. 2 bands who were camping beside us left on saturday because they were pissed off. it was still damn good though... the people were cool!!!!

personally i had a great weekend
nearly every metal and punk band i seen were fukin ****e anyway so it was probly for the best that they cancelled, usually it was like 3 or 4 of their mates rocking out to them and everyone else waiting for something good to happen

they green dragon tent was amazing as was the crazy electro stuff being played saturday and sunday nite at the leechrum tent, did anyone see exile or chevron??
Once the gaurds ****ed off about nine the craic started, unfortunatly sum people didnt bother waiting around and left dissapointed
Sunday night was tame in comparrison but still great craic
Some people complained about the lack off drugs but............

that naked guy was one of the highlights for a lot of people i reckon

i think everyone will agree that there was a great atmosphere and every1 was fairly friendly

Ro: maaan!

Was good.

motrocco

Well what can I say? Got there eventually @ 2:30am Sunday morning.

Seen a few bands. Can't say I remember the names but had a serious laugh.

Woke up Monday 4:30ish face down in the grass with some hippye kids playing with one of my boots. Great!!!!

I'll be there next year but won't be leaving Dublin @11:30 Saturday night.

Conways, thanks for the life saving drinks Sunday afternoon. The bar maid in there is nothing short of a gem.

See all you hippies next year.

Mot.

oh yeah I nearly forgot. Sorry if I hurt the naked guy bodyslamming him into a pile of hay. And you nordees that tried hope me for it. Forget it. I win!!!
(was only fun now kids, don't get excited!!)

Better luck next year.
