Drum & Bass Impact at Cruiscín Lán

Drum and Bass Impact

Some nutter trying to dance!

The start of March saw the return of the Impact drum and bass night to the Cruiscín Lán. As the last previous Impact night was way back some time last year, it was nice to see its revival. In fairness, FiCTiON and the rest of the Impact crew do a great job at running it, a thankless task if ever there was one.

As usual, there was a good line-up of djs, some local, some not but all great, although to be honest the dub reggae bit in the middle of the night kind of lost me but heh, that’s just me, it simply wasn’t my kind of thing. Anyway, when all was said and done, it was another great drum and bass escapade, albeit a rather sweaty one as that place badly needs some kind of air conditioning!

If you like drum and bass, check out the next Impact night on the 14th April.

Cool photos but who's that "wah" at the end? They obviously let anybody into these things!

Donal, I know, complete lack of any kind of standards!

Betty, apologies for my over use of soft focus and lens flares on Pat's photos, just can't help myself.

Hi
As a connoisseur of la fruits de la mer, I am intrigued by this Drumn bass you keep referring to. I normally prefer a baked sea bass with fois gras but would love to try this drumn bass you mention. Is this a lake that it comes from Cruiscin Lan?

Thanks

I like the artiness of the photos, it makes the whole drum and bass thing look less scary. :-)

Drum and Bass isn't scary, they're all lovely people. Now Rick Stein and his drum bass on the other hand... that's scary!

we are a profit-making non-charity whose aim is to promote the welfare
of rare corkconian monkeys like the beamish spotted lemur or the murphy backed marmosette.
Both these species are
suffering from dwindling numbers as the guinness coated baboon numbers steadily increases.

it has been brought to our attention by one of our monkeylurvclub (tm) members
that this site may be promoting cruelty to monkeys. We are bringing this to your attention in case it was not intentional.

Our issue of contention is the photograph of a loutish rowdy thug attired in a t-shirt with a monkey on it. As can be seen from the picture, he is in the
process of symbolically hitting the monkey on its back. Our fear is that this maybe a gang sign for promoting monkey abuse within the Cork monkey community.

It wasn't my fault, that monkey was drunk!

Lay off the soft focus. If you want to use my images, then use MY images, not bastardised versions.

So, what's got you all cranky today? :-) Look, feel free to kick my butt on Saturday night at the Impact gig.
