Well everyone, my stomach is sick with anticipation for my flight which leaves very early tomorrow am.

This will be my first time ever seeing the Pogues (hey I live in the states) and I'm making the trip to Dublin solo just to see them.

Wish everyone a safe journey.
See you all at the pub...

best of luck! I'm flying out of NYC on thursday.....see you at vallance and mcgraths!

Gonna sadly miss the pub, as my Orange County-Dublin flight doesn't even land until 15:30 show day (allowing 90 min to hotel, 60 min to check in and settle/change, then 20 min walk to the Point). I could use a tailwind and a spot of luck........

I'll join cat and admit to anticipation bordering on the ridiculous (or is it sublime?). I'll probably cry like a baby when the band lets into "Streams"!

3 days to go!!!

One of the lads that was coming to Dublin with me tomorrow night slipped on the stairs in work and broke his leg yesterday...........and he had'nt even started drinking. :cry:

The Moral of the story...........be careful, be very, very careful over the next two days!!!!!

Bit bolloxed, mate reckons he can't go 'til about 6, f*ck that. Think I have to work until 4 myself, so it'll be after 5 by the time I get there. Working on that today though... And no, I haven't a fucking clue what I'll be sporting.

**Thu Dec 22, 2005 4:44 pm**

**Thu Dec 22, 2005 5:12 pm**

**Thu Dec 22, 2005 9:35 pm**

Aye, getting off an hour earlier. :roll:

so should be able to make it by half 4 or so. See yis there!! Not able to head along to Voodoo Lounge afterwards, no poxy way home and have to work Saturday.

Probably be far too hammered by then anyway.

Arrived in Dublin a little later than planned (about 10 past 5 or so..) and spent the next hour looking for the pub, thanks to a lying bastarding taxi driver..

EVENTUALLY, I got there. Stumbled in the door to find the place absolutely heaving!! Had a bit of a ramble about but unfortunately I had absolutely no idea who or what the fuck I was actually looking for!! :oops:

So I spent most of the night just chatting to some headcase from Galway. G'wan Gerry ye aul bollix.

Anyway, how did you all get on? Sorry I didn't "make" it.. Had the most fantastic night of my life though!! Pogues fans, I love you.

More tomorrow, too pissed..
