 pre-Evian night out... s.o.u.r.c.e. this Thursday, May 22, downstairs @ The SPI Bar, Eden Quay s.o.u.r.c.e. is a one-off night happening this Thursday, downstairs in the SPI Bar on Eden Quay (next to Freebird Records/Bus Stop newsagents, just at O'Connell Bridge). Spinning the discs of varying diameters (fives, sevens, and twelves) for your aural pleasure on the night will be... Clodagh The night kicks off around the 8pm mark and goes on until 2am. Admission is a measly, pathetic, insignificant 2.50 euros, so you've no reason not to get your body down there. Some information on the disc selectahs in case you've no idea who they is: - Clodagh is the zine queen of 'Ideas is Matches', the promoter behind the now sadly defunct Club GZ in the Parnell Mooney, and the lead singer in politco punksters Easpa Measpa, whose debut LP is due out within the next month. - Decoy is one of the boys behind the hugley popular monthly night 'Caribbean Disco Hell' in Grays of Newmarket, tracing a line between deep house and glitchy techno, also a regular on Jazz and Power FM. - Dr Groove (and his partner in crime Krossphader) started out on Radioactive 101 'back in the day' and migrated later to 'The Sunday Service' on Power FM, which won an ie-dance award for best radio show. His recent choices at the Reclaim The Streets soundsystem typifies his set, which means you can only expect the unexpected. - Dorothy Kelly is a friendly name and face from ie-dance around the city and beyond, no doubt her ardency for attending every club, gig, and festival under the sun has left her with a music taste that will appeal to many ears. - Herv is the man with the plan, putting the electro back into electronica. His live sets around the city with the Neuromantek crew have a groove locked in for the feet, the head, and the ass all rolled into one dirty ball. - Jamie Farrell is one of the always evolving punk/indie/pop quartet Estel, whose follow up to their debut 'Angelpie I think I ate your face' is due out soon (next week I think?), and hopefully will treat the crowd to some of these tracks, as well as many other gems from his huge collection. - Karen Eliot is one of the people behind new kid on the block freesheet 'Red Flare Mist', spinning concious female hip hop and ultra minimal musique concrete techno. - Kate Butler started out writing for the enormously successful online zine 'Muse', and now writes occasionally in the Culture section of a small English fanzine called 'The Sunday Times' (never heard of it). Her first love is deep and dirty techno but her taste branches out into countless genres from there. - Krossphader is the other half of the 'axis of evil' (with Dr Groove), and now aligned to the pirate crew of Neuromantek. Also played on Radioactive and Power, and ran the 'X-Ray Specks' night in the Thomas House. His current amour is electro but his box contains a vast array of influences, from reggae to ska to dub to punk to hardcore to pop. Another crowd pleaser at Reclaim The Streets on Mayday. - The Chillage Idiots is a twin headed hydra of Mick & Paul, playing on indie pirate Alice's Restaurant and then Xfm since the year dot. Their Sunday night show features the best in local and international electronica. Their DJ sets are delightfully unpredictable affairs, often starting with hushed ambience and degenerating into old style 808 madness. - Willie is the brains behind the excellent long-running punk/skatercore fanzine 'Non-Plastique' and also one of the boys from the sadly disbanded group Bambi, whose records like 'Warning: May Contain Traces of Peanut' and incendary live shows turned Dublin venues into many a sweaty, shouty, adrenalised mess. Thanks to all of these people for coming along and playing their favourite tunes on the night. s.o.u.r.c.e. is a fundraiser for food and other expenses for "the Good Bus", which is a bunch of people from Ireland heading to Evian, France, for the anti G8 summit protests, which take place at the start of June.

Is the bar owned by the Socialist Party? Appalling. Connolly and Larkin were strongly against alcohol abuse.
Wasnt Flann O'Brien a raging alcoholic? Didnt Jesus drink wine? Did Van Gogh drink absinthe? Didnt the Situationist intoxicate themselves on anti freeze?
"Wasnt Flann O'Brien a raging alcoholic? Didnt Jesus drink wine? Did Van Gogh drink absinthe? Didnt the Situationist intoxicate themselves on anti freeze? "
None of the above were scientific socialists. Jesus was a chronic reformist and neo-colonialist; remember his "render onto Caeser..." piece?
the fundraiser be going ahead now the bus has been canceled?
The fundraiser will be going ahead.
The 'bus' will not be going to Evian but 'the good bus' will. We'll be there dont worry.
Therefore funds still needed and so the fundraiser
