I'd love to play Wexford town man.... can you post the likely spots where our music would go down in the town?

Finegan's on South Main Street opposite the mall into Tesco's - renovated last year and is now no longer a constant climb upstairs, it's all level and great for gigs. They have a monthly comedy club and also put on rock bands.

McDonalds, formerly the Ridge Bar has rock bands regularly.

There are teenage nights in the Dun Mhuire parish Hall, across the road from Finegan's, where four or five bands go on for half an hour at a time, but don't know if you're into that.

That's all I can think of at the mo. Anything else occurs I'll drop you a mail.

SG-Leper · 09-03-2006 12:26am

Cheers for the info dude! I'll get looking into these places and see if we can get something going on!

Yeah I will be there;)

misswex · 09-03-2006 1:21pm

What is bringing you to Wexford, you think we need a little bit of excitement is it? And how exactly will you be bringing any excitement to our dear county?

cruiserweight · 09-03-2006 1:50pm

well I am from Gorey, but live in Dublin and will be out for a friends birthday in Wexford town this weekend!Should be a good laugh!

Sean7 · 09-03-2006 6:16pm

Hey! I'm from Enniscorthy but don't go back much anymore

misswex · 10-03-2006 10:49am

Yeah Wexford town is so much better now for going out now that all the refurbishments have been done - you should have a brilliant night!!

Whats Enniscorthy done to you Sean7 that you have abondoned it?

Sean7 · 10-03-2006 4:42pm

well it stole 17 years of my life so I happily went off to college and I only go back everyone so often to see the family and a few friends

cruiserweight · 10-03-2006 5:08pm

Anybody know what dakota in wexford town is like! Apparently that is wher I am going tomorrow night?

RadioRetro · 11-03-2006 4:51pm

Dakota's great! I love it. There'll be a band on (can't remember who) with free entry then a DJ. Loads of lovely ladeeeeez and if you smoke you're sorted, the best smoking area in town. Beer is good, although a bit pricey for Wexford (€3.80 for stout, €4.04 for lager). They have the late night licence so stay open until 2.30 (serving stops at 2) although most of the crowd will head on over to sister place the Centenery Stores for the nightclub there (free entry before 11). You'll enjoy it.

OK its the weekend, its raining and the kids are climbing the walls, seriously lads when the sun aint shinin theres not alot to do with the icklle ons in Wexford, I know theres a playbarn in Newross but don't fancy the drive, what to do?:(

The library is based there now

misswex · 13-03-2006 10:02am

So did the kids survive the weekend or did Wexhun crack up under the pressure of trying to entertain children when its raining outside!!

Tune in soon for an update from Wexhun (we hope)

Le Rack · 13-03-2006 9:33pm

lilmissprincess · 13-03-2006 10:23pm

I'm not in a parade this year- thank god...I think Anne Marie Cooney has scarred me for life....if Irish dancing hadn't done enough..oh well, this year I get to laugh at the poor suckers who are stuck marching up and down in the lashing rain..

Hey everyone,

I have been in the web design business for a while now and have previously created the websites for Wexford:

- YoungWexford
and
- Inwexford

Both are taken down now.

The reason Im posting here is that I think Wexford needs a 'proper' site for guys like you includiong such things as:

Nightlife (reviews, tips, special offers...),

Things To Do (real interesting fun stuff!)

Message Board(s) (for discusssing and ranting all about Wexford!)

Shopping Guide

and so on...

Can you guys give me some ideas and what you'd like to see up on the site?

With your help, this will be BIG!

Cheers!

SG-Leper...found the site on a poster in school. It will save you the hassle of attempting to avoid Firegarden..their own website tells you exactly when and where their next performances until like July are..thought it might help. Its www.myspace.com/firegardenmusic .

Nonono... they moved elsewhere in town, hence my question about the location. I drove past it a few weeks back but for the life of me can't remember where.

They did. Nearest one is in New Ross.

Le Rack · 29-03-2006 11:02pm

Hey, there is a library in wex, in where whites hotel, the back of it... Isn't it?

RadioRetro · 30-03-2006 4:35pm

No, as an earlier poster said, it's in the car park behind Sam McAuley's in Redmond Square.

RedStar1916 · 30-03-2006 10:21pm

Hi there, another Wexford dweller here... And I must advise you, that library is terrible! Personally I'm not too fond of Wexford town in terms of places to get a life, I mean I know there's a few clubs there, but I don't have the interest or the ID to go there. I used to go to the Dun Mhuire, but to be honest I'm gone off the place, as it's recently been invaded by hordes of 12-year-old emo kids (no offense to any 12-year-old emo kids out there!!)
