Vitalic For Green Spheres In Dinn Ri
August 29, 2007 – 10:53 am | by Ken McGuire
Vitalic, or Pascal Arbez, is to take to the Heineken Green Spheres stage in the Dinn Ri on Thursday September 20th for the fourth Green Sphere’s session of the year. The tour included a stop in Kilkenny for New Young Pony Club earlier this year but clubbers should enjoy this night in September.
Vitalic’s work is a blend of rock, electronica, techno, house and more, all with its own “hard-edged playfulness” as has been touted in the press.
As with all other Green Spheres gigs you can throw your name in the hat for free tickets by visiting HeinekenGreenSpheres.ie.
Is The Carlow Metal Scene Slowing Down
August 20, 2007 – 10:29 am | by Ken McGuireWith staff here high in KKM Towers involved in the 2007 Battle Of The Bands in Kilkenny, we’ve noticed a drop off in crowds in comparison to last year and a drop off in the number of acts as well. Speaking to a few people at yesterday’s heat (the last of four heats), it seems the same is happening in Carlow.
Anyone care to offer any different?
Theatre In Carlow
August 16, 2007 – 1:03 am | by Ken McGuireHere’s one that’s slightly music related - can anyone tell us what the theatre scene is like in Carlow?
- Is there any kind of actual theatre space?
- Failing that, is there some community hall /venue that would accomodate performing arts?
- Are there any theatre companies based in Carlow?
- Is there a musical society based in Carlow?
Any help on the matter or any kind of information you could provide would be great. You’ll see why eventually…
