Big shout out to James and all the boys and girls of Ashbourne who showed us a rocking time on Saturday night! Slippery nipples are really something only the young should drink, not us older types. The heads on Sunday were not the best. Great gig tho, loadsa fun, so thanks one and all!
So another Patricks Weekend has come and gone. Usually for us, this is the start or our 'year', and this year was no different. We began on Saturday, playing to an estimated crowd of 40-50000 (by the end of our set anyway!) on the Quays in Waterford. Following us were Kila, then a fantastic fireworks display. We had a great view from beside the stage, and almost managed to win the Lotto, which was drawn live from the quayside that night too.
Then a brief break, and on Monday, all piled into the cars for a spin to Belfast, to take part in the Patricks Day concert. Long aul haul, but worth it. This was our second time playing this particular concert, last time we were there, it was the first time they had done it. We played to approx 6000 Eoghan Quigg fans, who, despite none of us being Eoghan Quigg, screamed so loud, it kinda hurt our ears.
Coming soon, we're playing a private party in Ashbourne, followed closely by another trip to Limerick for Easter Sunday. Hope to see y'all soon somewhere!

Just found a link to the Belfast Patricks Day Celebrations - we're pioneering percussionists!!! Also, check out the bill! Belfast Gig
Andy and I shall be appearing on Rob O'Connors Irish Beats on Beat FM this Sunday (8th) at around 7pm, to plug our upcoming gigs, shoot the breeze, create mayhem and annoy his many listeners with our silly tales of percussion. Feel free to text in your thoughts, the winner will get a lock of Andy's hair...priceless
Thanks to Lofty who sent me on this. We did it a while ago, but
unfortunately, the Mac broke, we thought it lost forever, but lo and
behold, Lofty found the back up disc we had forgotten about, and posted
it online! Enjoy!

Here are some photos I recieved Larry of a gig from years back! It took me a while to realise when it was, but as far as I can remember, it was after this gig that Nationwide interviewed us. Might be wrong tho...
So take a look at us when we were all sexy, as opposed to the slightly older, podgier lot we are today;)
