A Dublin buck who used to play bass for the upstarts is what I heard.

its expensive but well worth it. Upstarts do fuck all gigs, splodge haev only played ghere once i think
both bands are headline acts in my opinion, just wish we were on the bill still!!!
although, give the amount of money its costing to put it on, I am kind of glad it isn't my gig as its a bit much for my nervous system!
It's gonna take Polish and old school Punks to try and bolster the attendance for this gig.

well did you make youre dosh back?The Angelic Upstarts (Mensi on vocals) + Splodgenessabounds + Primitevo + Ructions – tomorrow Friday 18th September, Fibber Magees, 81 Parnell Street, D1
Tickets: €20 Door or online:tickets.ie
Im not making any profit on this gig & have made an extra effort to put on a quality line up. I have set the admission price as low as I can. The expenses are very heavy, the main ones being the fee & flights for the 2 UK bands. Based on my original calculations I needed 180 to pay in before breaking even, but there have been other costs that I had not provisioned for & I now need more than 200 to pay in before breaking even. I am in fact taking a big risk & more than likely am going to make a loss. I am doing it purely as a fan of the bands & the music. Mensi will be on vocals with the Upstarts on the night.
well did you make youre dosh back?
fair dueshi
it wasn't my gig!
but no, he didn't make it all back, but it was quite close as there were a lot of people there. I'm sure the bands would have taken a tiny hit, but he didn't want to go down that road.
Instead there is a gig going to happen early next year with the fantastic band the dipsomaniacs andus on the bill and we have volunteered our services, design and backline for free so he can make back the loss!
