The rubber heart Duo would be sweet (needless to say) but the show will be feckin great all the same if they cant come. so dont sweat it Emhin (am i finally spelling your name right?) Stomach ulcers from stress are no fun, i'll be delighted with camping, watching some Zen Diablo and poi work, spliffin (will your mother be Ok with this!?!?! or is your Garden a "smoke free zone?" ) and just hanging around with friends, so Relax and take it easy !!!

Cheers Faberge, now you covered the board in a thick dripping layer of Sarcasm.....
Ugh, its such a hard, persistant stain to get off.
by the way, last night was quite the enjoyable little juggly session for me, except for the rain.

Oi Eimhinakildisildof! (thats his real name by the way)
Where are you? I sent out the pilf and polf, our two most trusted homing pigeons, and you're no where to be found. I've heard of rumours and sightings....anyway give me a shout,

Cunning plans to discuss with you!

Hi guys, thanks to every one for posting!!
It took me a while to figure out that my faveourites thread listing wasn't lying by telling me there was new lovelyness up here and that this thread is now 2 PAGES LONG
hi guys!!
As for the name, it means - that which exists in the middle!
é i mhà ann éimhÃn - to spell it in its origionality. Surprisingly my old folks didn't know this and it was up to an old mysterious man to tell me who added the sub-title "a balance of dark and light where light shines", needless to say my life's been a delusional dreamy shambles ever since ,
well every so often at least...
Dr, whatsits, you will be reunited with your long lost surgical-tool of the twirlgical worldgical at the fff as i have found him hiding in a galway hippy juggling squat...coming from the medical background myself, i can't understand what gave him that idea
Oh and cameron, thanks for the words, and coinkydinkly, the Zen approach or at least the Taoist approach will be the order of the weekend wherever possible-- non-intervention and non-action with as little sense of self and as few desires as possible
in all cases except for when i need to get in gear rollin spliffies down by the river
Guys the posters are on the way to material existence today ( with the help of zhivago- who gave us a cool undred bucks to print 'em -nice one-Joe) So if any one thinks it'd be worthwhile putting them up anywhere give me an address and theres less of a lightlyhood that it still won't happen...um...lets just say i have an idea of myself-only kidding I'll do me level best!
Keep your eyes on the entertainment and leisure supplement in the Irish Times this saturday and tune into the tippFM- live from the foodfair- show(SUNDAY AT 3) for more details
Guys and Gals, thanks for being there interested willing and other such positivities...IT IS NOW ONLY ONE WEEK AWAY

Just off the phone to eimhin, and seems like there's a lot of interest in the gig, and just a bit worried that someone might arrive late and be ticketless, after all that travelling! so give the birr theater a ring (050922911) and pre book them
see ye all soon!

From Dublin:
There is a cheap bus (€ 12 return ), Kearn's, which leaves from Cathal Brugha Street, just off o'connell street,, it leaves from the back railings on the left hand side of the street, at 5pm and again at 6pm on friday ph 050920124 to find sat times and other times and times
From Galway:
Kearn's bus leaves from the Foster car park where city link leaves from, €12 return, at 5.30pm friday...not sure about sat times, see above phone number
