All vocals of Prodigy live are and always have been fairly annoying. Carl Cox supporting as well so a good night for a few of yips.

I've only seen them the once back at the trip to Tipp in 97 and I thought they were great. It's actually on YouTube but it's just the audio iirc. Yeah the vocals are not really the most important thing in it at all to be fair

Looks like standing for Belfast and Dublin are sold out.

I was at that, too. I went down, 15 years old, stepped off the bus and someone handed me and my mate a can each of Bud. I was drunk all day on it  :laugh:

That's a lot of Bud, but sure it'd take that much to have an effect.  ;)

Ah, lightning quick on the edit!

I bought a flagon of devil's bit cider off a fella sitting on the ground the second I got off the bus as well and my 15 year old self was as sick as a fuckin dog after it :laugh:

I probably went through a van-load or ten of booze in the subsequent decades  :laugh:

I was drinking cans of Devil's Bit on the bus up to the fest. I only had 4 cans but I fell flat on my face as soon as I stepped off the bus!

The cans were always a bit posh for me so strictly flagons and not the fancy linden village or bulmers either. 3 pound 15 for 2 litres and 4 pound 50 for the 3 litre, couldn't go wrong.

Bought a few cans of the new devils bit cider a while back and it tasted like fuckin vinegar. Absolutely awful.

God I miss flagons

Yep they will prbably reappear now with something like premium standing gets you in an hour earlier than everyone else for 3 times the price.

Got tickets sorted in the pre-sale on Wednesday and the Dublin tickets arrived to the house yesterday. I've never had tickets show up that quickly before.



Think I mentioned it on here before but was that 97 show the one were they had no setlist and they just played the requests people shouted out? My mates older brother was at the show with no setlist and he said it was awful.

Devil's Bit used to be 6% and you'd get 4 cans for a fiver but they changed the alcohol content to 4.5% and now they're 4 for €8.

Anyone remember Inch's cider? Pure rocket fuel in a silver can. 

I remember going up the Dublin mountains with 2 flagons of the cheapest cider I could get from the offie in Rathcoole, White Dragon or something I think it was called. Downed the first one, halfway through the second one it all came back up. Absolute piss it was. Haven't touched cider since, and that was in the mid-'90s.

An offie in Rathmines did 4 pint bottles of Anvil for a fiver at the time, happy days. Especially when I was in a house full of stoners and I didn't smoke, sure that put me to sleep most nights.

I remember the Inch's Stonehouse very well! Didn't notice it was gone though as I don't really drink cider at all these days. Stomach can't handle it.

Last cider I bought was up in Belfast and I got 3 flagons of some strong shit called frosty jacks iirc. Was pure delighted bringing them back to Tipp and they blew the fuckin head and the guts out of me

I think the first one was White Lightning and would be similar to that Frosty Jacks. Both absolute poison but it always felt that upping a litre to 3 could only be a bad idea so makes sense that they were petrol. As a kid 13/14 I could drink a flagon and go home and talk to the parents but since my early twenties a flagon would have me scuppered. Something in that there plastic.
