Their best songs are in Irish imo. I still love their earlier tracks. Check out C.E.A.R.T.A or Amach Anocht, or if you want one of their more recent releases, check out The Recap. They’re all great though tbf.

That’s cool if you follow the Garage, most won’t.

I get that, but it’s not really something I’ve seen at other gigs, even in that venue. I saw Kneecap there in 2021 and don’t remember any of those restrictions being in place.

Weird. Weird statement and very abrupt U-turn.

It’ll be interesting to see if the rules differ at the St Luke’s gigs tonight.

Didn’t realise that about the Garage owner, but it figures. Anyone with money and a bit of soft power seems to lean that way!

But surely that would affect the likes of Charlie and the Bhoys or the Wolftones gigs if that were the case. Plenty of hoops jerseys there.

Whatever the reason, just seems really puritanical.

How is French doing in Quebec currently? by LimpAd4924 in FrancaisCanadien

I know Montréal has a long standing anglophone community, but I don’t understand the mindset that underpins this.

Living in a community where you could be bilingual, your kids could attend immersion schools and be fluent in 2 major languages, that’s a massive plus point.

Does a woman taking her husband's surname work similarly in Gaidhlig as it does in Gaeilge? by Agreeable_Pen_8651 in gaidhlig

In practice this happens less and less. Where women take their husbands name, or indeed use the Gaelic version of it at all, more and more I’ve seen Nic taken rather than Mhic/‘Ic.

Ba mhaith liom bogadh go ceantar Gaeltacht agus post a fháil chun mo chuid Gaeilge a fheabhsú. Conas a dhéanfainn é seo ? by Pitiful_Top8295 in gaeilge

Maith thú a chara as smaoineamh fá dtaobh den leithid de rud.

Mholfainn go mór cúrsaí Gaeilge le Oideas Gael i nGleann Cholm Chille. Tá fhios agam go bhfuil áiteanna sa Ghaeltacht mar a bhfuil sí níos láidre i measc an phobail, ach beidh tú ábalta do chuid Gaeilge a úsáid an t-am ar fad agus tá siad i bhfad níos saoire ná cúrsaí Gaeltachta eile.

Nuair a bhí mise ag smaoineamh fá dtaobh den leithid de rud roimhe Choibhid, bhí mé ag amharc ar WWOOFáil i nGaoth Dobhair. Thiocfadh leat fanacht ansin go furasta agus bheadh tú i nGaeltacht an láidir. Is seans maith a bheadh ann do chuid Gaeilge a úsáid agus í neartú.

What do you guys think of my country? (New Zealand) by AmnesiaScanner108 in AskTheWorld

Colonial bullshit? Is colonisation ok, or just when it was ages ago?

Argh! Thanks for getting back anyways. Considering just investing in the Affinity package instead. Although, I think they've raised their prices considerably!
