I’ve got two things for yiz all. FIRST THING: As you know we're doing the CLUAS.com 5th birthday celebration yoke this coming Saturday night in Whelan's with bell X1, Republic of Loose, Dave Couse and Ann Scott. Dan Hegarty of RTE 2FM will be MC. So be sure you're there and - more importantly - be sure to spread the word among the mates and colleagues. There are apparently still a few tickets left down in Road records... All the info you want is on this page: http://www.cluas.com/birthday_gig.htm SECOND THING: We're planning a lunch this Saturday afternoon (May 15th) somewhere downtown Dublin for CLUAS writers and others to hook up at and to throw food at each other. Or whatever. It would also be cool to have some regulars from this discussion board at the lunch thingy. If you'd would like to come along send me an email (eoghan@cluas.com) so I can have an idea of how many are going to come and what size table to book, etc. We're probably talking about a pizza somewhere. Nothing too flash. Just it would a fine and timely opportunity to bring a gang together, and put faces to names, especially with the birthday gig happening that night. And before you ask - food consumed at the lunch will NOT be paid for by the site. So yes, anybody who comes will have to - shock, horror - have to pay for their own grub. Deal? Right let me know if you're going to come along ASAP and I'll let you know by return mail where in Dublin we'll be hooking up. 1pm is the planned time on Saturday to be sitting at the table. Maybe see yiz Saturday. Be it the lunch, the gig, or both. eoghan Editor, Webmaster, Moderator and whatever your having yourself.
