The Low Down :
A fantastic announcement from Dolan’s and all to coincide with their 10th anniversary, happy birthday guys and thanks for the years of wonderful gigs! It will take place in a special flown in marquee (great idea due to rain remember king john castle + Frames incident)
This weekender seems to be a really good idea and is taking full advantage of the ground opposite the pub (the Dockland) to promote these bands. Some great additions to the line up such as the Zutons (unreal live!), The Blizzards (Meteor Best Live Band 2008), Sharon Shannon and band plus guests and the list goes on. It also showcases some local talent such as Supermodel twins. This is very exciting and will be a great weekend. Dolan’s can use my logo I made for the simple fee of a weekend ticket :). Great Idea guys and I am counting down the days already!

If you cant wait that long Dolans are bringing some great gigs to limerick soon such as :
April 4th : Supermodel Twins
April 5th : Declan O'Rourke
April 6th : Eamonn Hehir & The Small Mercies
