    You have to click each pub for info.

    I think Kellys had something on last year and you needed tickets.

    That just shows you the pubs taking part, there is no actual gig guide there for Galway, but I think I might be making my way to Roisin Dubhs as Kormac is headlining there on the 27th and that seems good enough for me, plus its free. The Wailers is playing somewhere, but after seeing Lee Scratch Perry at Electric Picnic its quite hard to top that, especially when theres not a Bob to head the Wailers.

    Some of the pubs will show the lineup under the map when you click on them, most of them are blank though.

    Is there any place doing cheap Guinness? Think the first year was about a cheap pint at the allotted time, now it seams to be about the music.

    DJ Kormac nailed it at the Roisin Dubh, a great night but had to leave during his encore as it was boiling hot.

    there were professional photographers in kellys. Do you know who they were? I think Guinness Reps. Because one guy bought me and my friends pints of guinness for letting them take pictures of us for 15 minutes. Just wondering where i could see the photos/videos
