    When you can see 2 many djs for free the Friday night in Galway, €20 seem expensive!

    Go to Galway so, and enjoy spending the money on the accommodation and the travel ;)

    This was a debate on ticket prices, and I made the point they are 'free' in Galway the next night, I wasn't being petty!

    UL Fest Line up:

    Main Stage Lineup:

    Paper Planes
    Red Queen Contest
    Soldiers Can't Dance
    The Dead Heavys
    Vann
    Dirty Epics
    Keywest
    Bipolar Empire


    Not overly familiar with any of those, but a quick YouTube search earlier leads me to think it's an all-right line-up. May head along for an hour if I have what work I need to do this week done.

    That is a decent lineup, why have they been so quiet about it? This is the reason these music events never get any traction from students.

    From what I know they only confirmed the full line-up Monday. Even still, very little hype and how are people expected to pay €10 on a ticket for an event they know nothing about

    whose responsibility is it at the moment to promote this event? ULSU ents?


  • Registered Users Posts: 114 ✭✭djnr8


    I would assume so

    how have events been in general this week? well attended?

    Courtyard was very busy last night for hermitage green.

    Shifters on the Tuesday was supposedly very busy too.

    Orchard was at capacity last night

    In general the SU events seem to have done well but I can't see UL fest being popular

    I know Orchard was full last night but SinBin wasn't very busy on Tuesday. At least, it wasn't as busy as it should have been considering the promotion it got. Everywhere is was full when we got into town and there wasn't even a queue there.

    pity that college court is left looking like a tip. there isnt an ounce of respect for anyone paying a mortgage there. would love to see the litter officers or cops landing heavy fines on tenants and landlords.

    The SU really should have paid some students to head out and collect rubbish this weekend in the neighborhoods around the campus. Not only would it make it easier to have Charity Weeks in the future, but it's just a decent thing to do generally (and it would put some money in some student's pockets)

    They did during the week.

    The M&M didn't clean up they just told guys to relax.
    Also a missed PR stunt that Daly caught last year.


  • Registered Users Posts: 271 ✭✭Ginge Young


    Apologies then, I thought they were going around with black bags collecting rubbish like they usually do.

    20 people max in there sunday night for the "pre session" and still the same at the end of the night.

    Lodge was full by 11, angel lane wasnt open, D'icon was 21's...

    2.50 vodka, 8 for 2 jagerbombs and they still couldn't get a crowd.
