    Hi All

    Just wondering if you know a good website that tells you what going on in sligo
    I have looked at the one www.whatsoninsligo.com , but just wondered is it comprehensive or are there better ways of finding out local happenings
    Is there anything exciting going on this weekend, music or events ? Heading back to the homestead from Dublin and I am optimistic about great weather for the weekend
    is there something going on in Rosses Point?

    Thanks

    Minkey

    Rory Gallagher weekend is on in Dongeal town this weekend.

    Worth going to if you are into music.

    I wouldn't mind the Donegal trip, but would have to head up during the day

    Anyway thanks for the responses

    Surely that entirely depends on what type of music you are into? :D

    Oh, and it's on in Ballyshannon, not Donegal town.

    That's no excuse - if you REALLY like music & you REALLY like Rory Gallagher, you should know that he was born in Ballyshannon. I knew this because I am sooo knowledgeable about all things musical, arty & cool.

    ......

    Ok, I googled it. Damn, foiled again. :mad:

    Rory Gallagher is a great Fessie, if you like the different bands playing the same set all day.
