    Hi Noel, I'd be interested in playing. What equipment will be there? I play my own original music, and I have a percussionist as well, so let me know if this suits.

    Thanks for reply that would be great we are basically trying to raise money on the day for out of home teenagers in the Don Bosco services and welcome anybody to play music it will be hopefully be like one long jamming session with a mixture of music depending on who turns up on day.Unfortunately we dont have any equipment and as such envisage it will be all acoustic as this is also a condition of the garda permit.Unfortunately we are not allowed to leave contact number on boards.ie but if you send email to me at noelcryan@ymail.com or to rachel@donbosco.ie with your email address or contact details then i can forward our contact numbers or we can contact you.Thanks again for your reply
