    Nothin mad exciting :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 525 ✭✭✭ya-what-now?


    Oh and sorry, it starts on the 6th March i.e. week after next!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 346 ✭✭trekkypj


    Yup that's right.

    Tues is a Bar Ex run by Media Soc, and we're doing a Classic Hollywood Theme with the Camenbert Quartet as special guests. That's on the Tuesday of Rag Week, on the 7th March.

    Enjoy, then. *shrug*

    They sell out every time they play here, though. That says a lot. If they're not your cup of tea, nobody is forcing you to go. A lot of people like them, myself included, and they WILL go to it, if they can, and enjoy the night.

    Well feel free to do that then...

    It's an interesting fact of life that not everybody is the same, and other people actually enjoy different types of music to yourself. A lot of people are excited about this event.

    The SU looked over a bunch of proposals from various clubs, all wanting to hold the Tuesday Bar-ex. I know personally that at least 2 other club's proposals were very strong, well thought out, etc. Obviously the Media soc's was the best.

    They seem to have their ducks in a row. I'm not a huge fan of the camenbert quartet, but I'll still go to this bar-ex. Sounds like fun.

    Don't forget the Revs too....tell me they're not playing this year.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 765 ✭✭✭Smurfpiss


    at leat we got the loose....weren't turn supposed to be playing as well or has that been discreetly forgotten.
    And eh..every bax ex has "sold out" this year. regardless of quality. there's enough tasteless alcoholics amongst us to make up the numbers...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,374 ✭✭✭Gone West


    I saw turn, republic of loose, camenbert qrt., and picturehouse on the flyers that have been going around.

    Indeed, IMO thats a pretty damn good lineup for ragweek, and kudos to the ents officer(mabye mediasoc too) for getting them.

    Given the choice of goign to see picturehouse or watching that Jimmet Bennet film i really have no idea what i'd do, prob watch the film as though as these are possibly the worst excuse for a band ever... Although i may be persuaded to go only if a) they play their jingle from the centra ad...
    and b) to see all the pretty first years



    Ceennntrrraa ffuuurrr the waaaaayyyy we live tudaaaayyyy...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 765 ✭✭✭Smurfpiss

    Whats the featured charity for Rag Week this year?

    Seanie.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 525 ✭✭✭ya-what-now?


    Don't quote me, but I think it's something to do with suicide bereavement or something!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,082 ✭✭✭Feathers


    Just to clarify, ya-what-now? is right - the RAG charity this year is Turas le Cheile. It is a suicide bereavement support service. It seemed a pertinent charity considering how Maynooth has been affected by suicide in recent years. It is also a local charity, based just up the road from us in Kilcock.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 346 ✭✭trekkypj


    Right.

    I have it on good info that there's only 30 or so tickets left for Thurs Night.

    Monday and Thursday are already sold out.
