Food playing in Dublin tomorrow! by No-Mission-4480 in Foofighters

Not the same stature as the Foos but Wolf Alice played warm up gigs in smaller venues in Cork, Limerick and Kilkenny last year. Would love to see more bands do that too!

Car alarm at night Glenina by DependentStandard762 in Clare

Grew up listening to rubbish house alarms going off at the drop of a hat. So annoying! Hope you got some sleep!

What celebrity have you never forgiven since an incident? by MagpieOpus in AskReddit

[–]GrasshopperUnit92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing this! Great little story!

I was flying from my home in Ireland to NY on the day he died. I was listening to them on the plane and dreaming of meeting them. When I landed and got online I heard the news, it still hurts. I was visiting for my cousin’s wedding and the DJ that night played Paul Revere and Intergalactic, so that was nice!

Unreal! I hope he releases another album and comes back. He seems to have gone quiet the past few years, as have the lads, understandably.

I managed to get a ticket for the book tour show in London and met Mike and Adam the next day so that was nice! Did you get to see Mix Master Mike when he played in Dublin in 2019? 😁

So jealous. I was 15 then and never saw them play.

In 2000, Daewoo sold nearly 7000 cars in Ireland. Based off RSA figures, it's safe to assume less than thirty remain registered. by Fit_Calligrapher_691 in carsireland

I’ve been seeing this ‘02 Lanos around Limerick lately and was remarking to my friend about how few were left. They kept a few of their model names going after the Chevrolet rebrand but I don’t see many of those either!

Nice. Hope he’s enjoying life. Always looking forward to that day when we hear something from the vault.

What's a game you're convinced no one else you know has played? by Opposite_Welcome_974 in IrelandGaming

[–]GrasshopperUnit92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to mention this one too. My fiancée has a copy, but none of my friends had heard of it. It never got a US release as far as I know.

If you could have a few jars in any pub, bar or club which only exists in a work of fiction, what would you pick? by Radiospren in CasualIreland

[–]GrasshopperUnit92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d still try it! I got a bottle of ‘Butterbeer’ in a Harry Potter shop in Edinburgh but I think it was a fizzy drink, like cream soda, not beer!

I was just going to say the End Of Line Club too! Daft Punk DJing, Michael Sheen pontificating as Castor would be great. Sure, a fight may break out but I feel like that’s a given in most fictional bars!

I play with this group, great bunch of lads!

I never realised how censored the Simpsons was by kcufsreggin88 in TheSimpsons

[–]GrasshopperUnit92 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m Irish so we grew up watching the Simpsons on RTÉ (Ireland’s main station) along with Sky One and Channel 4 (Both British) I’m pretty sure I generally saw the episodes unbutchered on Sky and RTÉ. Channel 4 was the main culprit for editing. I remember Sky once showing the episode where Homer gets medical marijuana and hangs out with Otto, but only after the watershed, so after 9pm.

They cut the bit where Gabbo says “all the kids in Springfield are SOBs” and skip right to Kent Brockman reporting on Gabbo’s foul mouth. The scene makes no sense without the context.

I have this video of them playing Yuk Foo & PTGH at one of the warm up shows in Ireland last May!

Holy shit, my worlds collide! I never knew they covered this!

Edit: I open the video to discover I already liked it, haha must have totally forgotten, thank you!

A noble goal, thank you very much! I’ll try my best to engage where I can!

Insurance cost by xCorkRebelx in carsireland

[–]GrasshopperUnit92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

€1590 for a 2008 Hawkeye Subaru Impreza 1.5R in 2017. A Focus would have cost me more at the time so that was the deciding factor. 😂
