the lads

it has been brought to my attention that the High Stool in limerick is closing.

I recieved the following message from Ninger:

"This saturday, May 28th, the high stool closes its doors!!they're having a
farewell party in there, no drink on sale, it's a big knacker drinking
session, bring your own cans, feckin luders!!"

I am most saddened at this, i had many fantastic nights in there, both those i could and couldnt remember. Many is the time a night club turfed a number of us out, only to be welcomed with open arms to the dusky, gruff familiarity (Hmm, do many big words for the high stool me thinks)

Anyway, its another end of an era (getting repetitive this)

High Stool, i salute you, and puke at your door fondly!!

Following this Saturday May 28th, The High Stool in Limerick finally closes it's battered doors.

The mother and father of all horrible last-hurrahs kicks off @ 10pm on Saturday night and gallops on until 6am on Sunday fucking morning!!

€15 @ the door to cover the cost of the PA, lights, security and all the other shit that goes into a shindig like this... 6 bands to play on the night (incl The Swarm, Giveamanakick, Atrophy, Hatch77 + more tbc) with a DJ afterwards.

There will be NO DRINK ON SALE in the High Stool so make sure to bring gallons of your own!!! Oh yah, for all the black-lunged sons of bitches among ye, smoke away to yere hearts content...who's gonna stop ye, the Law? Haha.

The debauchery kicks off in ernest after Kerbdog (in Dolans).


The High Stool, Catherine St., Limerick

best late nite bar by a country mile, no such thing as a lock in, u just left whenever you were ready, many's a nite we had severe problems negotiating the 400+ steps and complex tunnel system to get to the jacks in the basement, the only place to have both the stone roses and slayer on the same jukebox, spiderman - the worlds most inefficient barman ever, the only pub in limerick that doesn't kick u out when u fall asleep in it, lads puking down the front of their jumpers and still drinking, i could go on, it will be missed

it'll only hit home some thursday night around midnite in town when we've nowhere else to go

Looks like we might have to try out some new bars and see whats on offer. A trip back to the wicked chicken might be in order
