Following on from my SFX thread and still stuck in overdrive nostagia, anyone remember this off the beaten track venue in Dunlaoghaire? Saw "Europe" there circa 86/87. (dodgey scandanavian heavy metal act) Its definetly the recession doing this to me.:D

Know exactly what you mean! Saw The Jam there in 1980 and The Clash around the same time, supported maybe by the Golden Horde. Fun times

Sonic Youth played there once, supported by some band called Nirvana. August 21st, 1991 according to the IT. Suicidal Tendencies gig was good also.
