This was one fun gig, 100 DRUNKEN NIGHTS opened with their Clash/Rancid inspired ska punk, getting tighter all the time. From darkest Galway was ONLY FUMES AND CORPSES, one of the hardest working bands on this Island. Mixture of melodic and harsh hardcore. Great CD out at the moment. LOS MENDOZAS, all the way from Mexico via the bypass in Bristol, when they did actually play it was fast crazy hardcore. But they were more interested in having a good time with members of the audience and giving us a good time and involving everyone. Ah, THE MINGERS, who it seems will break up soon. At least they got to play over here. Great fastish melodic punky hardcore. They were great, I think they had a good time playing live too. What was it, FULK CHELSEA (you had to be there to know what I'm on about). Colm livened things up as per usual, you can see Lurgan's very own up there in the pics. As Cormac was carried through the crowd, the gig came to an end. I sold a couple of records and went home happy.
Thanks to everyone who played.
