Saw Aerosmith in Dublin - shockingly bad...

Dublin was great - very friendly!  Loads of Eastern Europeans about, much more than I thought there would be.

Music shops were OK, a couple of things looked good value:

New Epiphone Firebird with Maestro Vibrola - £349
New Gibson '59 Les Paul reissue - £3250

Not much else worth checking out, except for an overpriced Tokai Love Rock at £650.


yeah, there's been a lot of immigration up north here recently too. Like once the ceasefire was announced, everyone suddenly wanted to live here.  :?  don't they know what the weather's like?  :?

but yeah, virtually everything is overpriced in dublin. since the euro came in, everything shot up about 30%.

The three P90 Reverend sounded awesome. One of the very early USA models.

I should have gotten a P90 Rev instead of a Wolfman (wich I sold).

I feel GAS coming up.

yeah, at the aerosmith gig almost everyone i spoke to was from the north, but last time i was in Dublin city centre for a gig i spoke to maybe twenty people and i think two were Irish!!  i have absolutely no problem with foreign people and i totally understand their desire to go in search of a better life, after all that's why half the western world claims to be of irish descent!  it is getting a little ridiculous though, where did all the locals go to?

(terrible how you can't even discuss immigration without fear of being labelled a racist)
cry HAVOC!! and let slip the pigs of war!!!

True matey.  I wasn't being racist in any way either - just commenting on the way the culture of the city is changing!

thats one odd subject everyone treads very carefully about, but i think unless you actually harbour that sort of opinion you shouldnt be worried about sayin what you think man.
haha i get what you boys are on about even in my wee town.like i went to live in england for like 3 years there and when i came back i arrived in a multicultural cookstown....lol.
most of th guys ive met from eastern europe an portugal are quality lads,go drinking with them couple of times a month but jesus theres some real baduns too.ex military nutbars and that but on th whole good ppl.
though not wholely attributing it to them, the crime rate in my town and the surroundin area has went up like 45% for bulgalrys an assault.
but like they say people are the same everywhere good an bad.  :roll:


and none of them have heard of bareknuckle pups... :!:   thats th real crime
