History Ireland are hosting a ‘hedge school’ on Dublin’s late 70’s punk & new wave scene as part of Phizzfest on Sunday 12th September in Phibsborough Library.
Do you remember the Radiators From Space, the Virgin Prunes, The Blades, The Atrix, DC Nein, Fit Kilkenny and the Remoulds…?
Join ‘Master’ Tommy Graham for a History Ireland Hedge School with Fintan O’Toole, Eamon ‘Dev’ Delaney, David ‘Black Catholic’ Donnelly, & Councillor Cieran ‘Punk’ Perry.
If you were part of the scene why not embarrass the kids and dig out the old Docs, hair gel and safety pins and join us in the park.And if you were too young come along anyway and find out about the youth culture explosion that produced bands as diverse as U2 and Paranoid Visions (both still gigging 30+ later).
Including an exhibition of photos, punk ephemera and of course….…the music.
