Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8Well done to whoever did that. Can't believe they posed for that poster.
As for Macnas, I'm personally glad that the EU ministers and Bertie have to sit and watch them do a performance. It's all they deserve. Might have started out as an interesting concept of street theatre but that pseudo-Celtic stuff does nothing for my aestetic sensibilities or my ear drums. If Ireland wants to pretend to the rest of the world that this is how our forbears celebrated pagan festivals once upon a time, fine. Personally, I think they just sat around drinking mead and having a laugh.
I'm pretty sure the shrooms featured in the recreational choices.
On the Galway/Celestial grapevvine, the word is that the volte-face of the Saw Doctors was experienced on the N17 - let's hope the Lord visits a similiar road to Damascus style conversion on the EU honchoes if they ever journey up to Tuam and then, bejaysus, we'll all live happily ever after. Amen?
And it's not the first time they've changed their minds about something.
At the end of February last, two of these tulips played at an anti-war demo in Galway:

On St Patrick's Day, they were in Washington, entertaining George Bush
how many skeletons lurking in the cupboards and sideboards of Ireland's showbands. I ask you.
Support a real antiwar musician, Paul O'Toole whose CD "From Shannon with Love" is out now.
Proceeds are mainly for anti-war activists and antiwar activities.
they have been around since I was eleven. maybe once they thought they could reach heights attained by the pogues. but they didn't.
so they have gotten on with their lives, have other jobs,but ,luckily, a few sell out gigs, means some of them can buy a house.
it's obvious, they even seem to be laughing in the poster, like ' I can't believe we are getting paid x to appear in this tacky poster. ha ha ha." they don't take themselves seriously, and neither should any of you.
however, I do like the alteration done on the billboard. a guy caled mark pauline did it for a while in the seventies, under the pseudonym of survival research labrotories. he stil does masive robotic firedisplay shows, arty robo wars stuff. but if you can, search for his alteration pranks. hey, i'll go get the url...
