Boo boo budoobey...Gan Ainm Nam! We've just come back from a crazy weekend in Saigon from which the city, and the band, is still reeling. The punters at the Dublin Gate Irish Pub didn't know what hit 'em. They don't normally get to see five gobshites making eejits of themselves to such an insane soundtrack. To get a taste of what it was like you can see a few new videos of our Vietnam gig that we've uploaded to our Video Footage page. We've come back with a terrible hangover, but also a renewed enthusiasm to get back in the studio and learn some brilliant new material with our new lineup.
Speaking of which, our new bassist, Paddy Troy, was well and truly broken in over the course of the weekend. He will never be the same again and that's probably not a bad thing. We're now looking for our sixth member to fill out our new lineup. Ideally he/she will be a fiddler but some other traditional instruments would also be fine. If you think you've got what it takes to drink 20 Jaegerbombs in one night and still manage to play some fast hard Irish rock then you might just be what we're looking for. Get in touch with us at our email ganainm.sg@gmail.com if you think you can handle it.
In the meantime we have a few gigs lined up for you over the next three months at our usual haunts, including a pre-Christmas gig so hopefully we'll be brushing up on Fairytale of New York. We're also really looking forward to entertaining the Singapore Gaelic Lions GAA Club at their annual post-Asian Gaelic Games piss-up in November where they will hopefully be celebrating bringing home some silverware for Singapore again. Watch this space and our Facebook for details of all our gigs and we'll see you soon!
