If I'm being honest, I don't remember much about the 90's or early 00's. Weekends were spent partying, probably a bit too hard, but it was the Celtic Tiger era and we thought we were invincible and the party would last forever. I spent those weekendss drinking and dancing (badly) in a local club called Bauhaus. I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy it, at the time it was great, the next morning though... Champagne, drank by the neck, was the drink of choice and yes, it was as obnoxious as it sounds. Late 2002, the party came to an end for me, I just stopped and I haven't touched a drop since. Whilst I've always been a rocker at heart, I can't help myself when I hear a good dance tune. After all, a good tune is a good tune, regardless of genre! Most of the acts performing today were from that era of my life, a time when Music TV still existed and an appearance on TOTP could make you a star. So, with that in mind, I headed out to the Biggest Disc
I headed in to Whelans for the launch of the Dublin Bowie Festival 2020 during the week. I've been aware of the festival for quite a while, but haven't attended as of yet. So, when I was invited along to the launch, sure it would have been wrong not to attend!
There's a fantastic program of events lined up for January 2020 and you can check them out on their website.
the highlight for me though has to be Face To Face With The Men Who Sold The World with Tony Visconti and Woody Woodmansey on Sunday January 12th in the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland. That should be fascinating.
Anyway, on the night, I managed to catch a short set by the brilliant EllyD. If you get the chance, check her out live. I'll be heading to see her at Ubh Cafe in Newbridge on October 25th.
