Have tickets for Mick Flannery, will hang around for Hot Sprockets too. Favourite place for a gig I've been to.

Jerry Fish is free?

I would've thought they could charge a few quid for people to see him?

Could've done alright, but we tried to keep the prices down as much as possible for people, which im sure you can understand is even harder in a fairly intimate room. This year we kept as many gigs as poss over the weekend Free as we are celebrating a pretty great year of winning IMRO venue of the year and a HotPress award, so we want everyone to come out & celebrate & party with us to some really great shows!

What are the chances of getting in to Booka Brass Band or Jerry Fish for free? How will that work?
Anna Mitchell is on before them & it's €10 in. If that show sells out, surely there won't be much room for people arriving later on.
