Ozzy Osbourne did two nights of warm up shows in McGonagle's. 11th and 12th January 1991. I think it was Zak Wylde's first gigs with him.

Wilbert do you remember the Shadow of Kain/Kling Film and Elastic band and yer man Conrad Greens(the bus conducter fella from Kilbarrack) band in McGonagles?
Class!

I do. Barely! It was a loooonnnnggg time ago.

I met Jimmy Mitchell a couple of years back. He was standing at a bus stop in february wearing the tightest jeans I've ever seen and a leather waistcoat with nothing underneath. No jacket, either.

The exchange between us went like this;
Me: Hi Jimmy, how are you doing?
Jimmy: Fucking freezing!

[tombstome]

ask japeo about the time he was electrocuted on stage in whelans

They tried to pin that on Limerick rockers TOOTHs dodgy gear.
loved the Funnel.

 

[Man In A Can]

McGonagles let me into a gig when I was only 13 in 1991. They then had the "nerve" to nearly chuck me out because of stage-diving.

The same thing happened to me at a Sabbat/ Xentrix gig, was my first ever gig too, think it was '88, but that would make me 12 at the time so maybe it was later. Can anyone remember the year?
