    There's a fun raiser in aid of the Samaritans and the Laura Lynn Hospice on tonight at the Garyduff sports centre in Rochestown @ 8.30. It's Ringo, which is a form of Bingo using Music instead of numbers, and is sure to be great fun for anyone who goes.

    Tables are 40 Euro, with a maximum of 4 people per table.

    I know it's short notice, but if you can't go, and think you might know someone who's interested, then pass the word along, it's for a very good cause!

Currently the band is releasing their second album “Estalla” with Polen Records in Colombia and “Blow Up” through Nacional Records in the U.S. A. Bomba Estereo have performed more than 40 live shows in Colombia, with artists such as Calle 13, Pacha Massive, Choquibtown, La 33, and Tres Duenos among others.

    The Mai


    1st October - 3rd October 8pm.

    Cork Arts Theatre
    Camden Court
    Carrolls Quay
    Cork

    Tkts €15/€12 conc groups welcome.
    Bookings call 021 4505624





    Chapter Theatre Productions presents The Mai by Marina Carr.
    Cast: Anntoinette Hilliard, Judy Donoven, Tess Healy Maguire, Claire Jackson, Maria O'Callaghan,
    June McCarthy, Marina Lawlor and Taylor Lane.

    Set in the Irish midlands whose landscape becomes the arena in which Marina Carr's Gothic epic
    expands, The Mai revolves around Millie's narrative of the desperate loves of her mother, a woman
    faithful to a man incapable of loyalty. For years she has spent hours contemplating Owl Lake and
    waiting for his return. In a house of proud, mad and sometimes comical women, she and her daughter,
    her sisters, her aunts and her grandmother, a Spanish beauty and sixty-year widow of a
    nine-fingered fisherman, weigh their second chances as the legend of the lake unfolds in Marina
    Carr's exquisite and fearless tragedy.

    On Saturday November 7th, Black Sun welcomes Oblivia and Ju Suk Reet Meate (Smegma) [USA], Jozef Van Wissem [NL] and Laura Sheeran [IE]

    Oblivia and Ju Suk Reet Meate from Smegma are the core of an improvising troupe that thinks it’s a rock band, a weird folk band that plays free jazz and a garage band that plays experimental noise music. They have influenced generations of the best and strangest artists. They have continued to draw the most creative of musicians to them, making records with Japanese noise legend Merzbow and the pin-ups of the American noise scene of today, Wolf Eyes. Members of Smegma have worked with Earth, Chris Corsano and John Fahey.

    Composer-lute player Jozef Van Wissem is renowned for his unusual take on the Renaissance and Baroque lute, probably the most unlikely instruments in the world of contemporary music. He cuts and pastes classical pieces, reverses melodies, adds electronics and processed field recordings . He will also present a talk on ‘The Liberation of the Lute’. Completing the bill is Laura Sheeran of Fovea Hex. At Black Sun, Laura will be previewing material from her next album 'Lust of Pig and The Fresh Blood' and also including some improvisational work. Her set up on this occasion will include laptop, 6 string ukulele, flute and bowed saw.

    Vegan cakes and records/tapes/cds from distros Bold Lump (Dublin) Dot Dot Dot and Rimbaud Records (Cork) will be available for purchase throughout the night. Tickets (€10) are on sale now in Plugd Records, Cork City. Capacity is limited so it is advised to purchase tickets in advance to avoid disappointment on the night.
