It's going to be mental in there at that time on Sunday. You will probably get in but it's going to be extremely uncomfortable for all involved. You'd all be better off finding somewhere quieter... like I'm going to do.


Good piece of advice, cause now it was really really pleasant for the ones that did go there in the end !! :lol:
It was kind of quiet, with an enjoyable session going on up front ! :lol:
Very, very pleasant indeed :D

AAARGGHHH I wish i was there for the Dublin show.
Seeing The Pogues in Dublin for me is like a Catholic seeing Jesus in Heaven. Perfect. Oh well, maybe next year, at least I got to see the best band in the world in Glasgow :D

THE CELT should be visited by everyone! From my 4-day visit in Dublin in July, that was by far the best pub for me. Amazing atmosphere!

well... if each of you is only going to have a tiny glass of milk, then the drinks are on me! hehe!

and actually i'm not irish - i'm only living and studying in this loveliest of cities and unfortunately i'll have to go home in june :cry:

i'm soooo lookin forward to seeing the pogues live... i've loved their music for years and years!

btw, it surprises me that there actually are irish people who like the pogues... so far, i haven't met one of them, and when i say i think the dubliners are great, people at my age usually laugh at me! would you believe it!

okay, see you then. if not in the pub, then at the concert.

Alright 5 at O'Donoghues!

Post by Paddy Rolling Clone Fri Dec 21, 2007 9:28 am

O'Donoghue's it is. I should DEFINETELY be there before 5 as I DO know where I'm going this time! 8) Have a safe trip. I'll see you all then.

I think I'll be there somewhere late in the afternoon.


Mick and I and two other great lads will be around tomorrow (Friday) already, then head for Belfast (guess what ..), and then be back in Dublin again on Sunday. Me bags are packed, I'm all excited and much looking forward

If you're lucky, there may even be a session going on on Sunday, though don't expect to see any of the Dubs there.

It's only fair to mention that this will be the most crowded pub of all.


Thanks for this suggestion too. That pub was already on our list of places to visit, for exactly the historical reason you mentioned. But I didn't realise it was sort of halfway between city centre and the venue. So don't tell anybody, it's our little secret, right .. :?

Take care, Philip, and of course we are hoping you'll be present to throw in a few riffs. Shall we count your surprise appearance as the second of our little secrets !?!

yours,
