[bohs punks]

ill know by weekend what the story is

 

[DEARLYDEMENTED]

crossing fingers and toes as we speak lol

 

[DROG]

which bit of the pa dosent work ? i might be able to help with a replacement pa head if its that .

 

[damien]

its some of the speakers afaik

 

[krusty411]

how much would it cost to rent the speakers ?

 

[damien]

depends. look up the golden pages, find a music equipment hire shop as close to drogheda as possible and ring them.

 

[krusty411]

i'll stop off in the sound shop on the way home or maybe into dodgy eddies place

the speakers on one side blew during the techno, the amp was only on 6 and the speakers were bought specifically for the amp - ie they were large enough to take anything amp could throw out, thus we think its a frequency issue that done the damage rather than a power issue ie the lads put out some mad frequency bass that couldnt be handled - the thing that low cut takes care of etc.

they are going back to the shop on thursday and we will be pleading ignorance, sayign tis a mechanical fault and seeking immediate replacement, they may do that straight off or may say it was not anything mechanical but our fault - will have to wait and see

The moral of the story - Kill Techno

 

[VARUKA]

not only was that tekno speaker wreckin,it was totaly ear wreckin too...too bad the speaker broke...i had a good powerful speaker but it fell out the 3rd floor window and so i'm still glue-ing all the peices together and when its all glued up then i'll give it to whoever wants it.

good stuff krusty!

where can a punk stay in drogheda thats close to the venue?

 

[krusty411]

theres a hostel pretty close i think its only €16 for the night, theres the park or theres plenty b+bs, but if your really stuck im sure the cops will have a spare cell

 

[krusty411]

we have a football pitch line-up for lots of drinking a bit of footie, tug-o-war etc. before the gig, so who's up for that ?

 

[VARUKA]

cells can be comfy at times ya know and you get free breakfast and all.

have you got any links or names of hostel/b+b's?

 

[krusty411]

leave it with me and i'll post them this evening, work blocks the site in a minute
