Acidhouse

Thanx 4 da help!

electrofilth

if you want "rave" check out myspace.com/ursuscrewdublin they put on multi-room, multi-genre (dubstep,techno,drum n bass,) nights in mcgruders on thomas st every month or so. grimey as **** and always fun! they do up the place with lights and all mad **** too.

other than than there is just international djs that play in the tivoli or tripod, good place to check listings is city discs, in temple bar which is right beside the temple bar music centre/button factory.....they usually sell tickets for most of the decent djs.

Raves do not really exist anymore in clubs here mate (old skool nites would be the exception then again it's still not a proper Rave as such)illegal Raves in warehouses and in forests,etc (they do happen occasionaly) is the closest you will get, asides from that you could always check out Raindance in London,established 1989 and still going strong, 20th anniversary party next year should be an absolutely amazing event.

and i think he meant "rave" as in go for a good oul boogie, not necessarily a full on oldksool semi illegal rave!

check out mcgruders pub, thomas st on halloween night, it will be full on madness with dj scotch egg

Is he still on the go? Nice one! Shame I can't go to the aforementioned gig. Rave or Rave-esque, there were some cracking tracks from the early to mid 90's I'd love to hear 'out loud and proud' again...

Seanie.

Becki-Jay

Ah your from Tullamore, know a good few from there..

yeah the morgan hotel in temple bar, boppin old school techno every sunday night.

Its DEAF Weekend this week - hence Garnier. Luke Vibert is playing the basement in Kennedys on Sat nite - might pop allong. Also drum n bass/jungle in the basement of the Southwilliam on Friday night

I should add that The Morgan is not a rave, people are dressed pretty well here, personally i like chicks dressed up boppin away -reminds me of the FTV parties

Yep one of my favourite spots. I was in there a few weeks ago, actually on a date with a young lady, thought it would be a nice bar to go for a quiet drink - man was I wrong! the place was absolutely hopping! the Dj was playing some absolutely bangin tech house and minimal, some sort of stuff I play but I would not dream of playing it in just a normal bar - but everyone seemed to love it! Except the girl I was with

jonny68

I'm very surprised they would be playing tech house and minimal somewhere like The Morgan (you defo wont catch me there now)suppose in fairness ive not been there since December 2006, nice bar but like Cocoon full of posers up their own ars*s, i was in Cocoon last Friday at a promotional nite where there was free Coors Light (don't even particulary like it but it's free so be rude not to) music for the most part was quite good, Funky House and some nice USA Garage but as i said full of posers.

FTV party's:D I love watching those but we don't have FTV anymore but used to always watch those cool party's on the FTV Diamond where Bob Sinclair would be rinsing out the House classics for the coked up models, all very pretentious but Monseiur Sinclair must have had a field day with some of those models.:pac:

empirix

oh yeah FtV parties rock, best in the world!! As for pretentious gits, head up or down and bop away and try to pull a hot chick!!!:D

Do you know if McGruders is any good on an average week night for students?

electrofilth

that totally depends on the promoters or djs playing. I only go there when the Ursus Crew put on djs, so cannot comment otherwise.
NCAD is just down the road so it might be ok for a pint or two if nothing else
