The pub (capacity 90 seated and 50 standing) doubles as an intimate venue for live performance and events. It is very easy to find, being close to the Four Courts. We can cater for small bands, solo artists and DJs. Our function room upstairs is an ideal venue for comedy or intimate gigs. Sample Event "A" Promoter stages event featuring live bands with their own sound equipment starting at 9.30pm and finishing at normal closing time. Venue cost: NIL Sample event "B" Promoter stages event featuring DJs and requires late bar, sound system and security between 11 pm and 3 am. Late bar Licence til 2.30 am: .........................................700 Sound system: ........................................................... ..20 Contribution to Security staff cost: ................................ 100 Venue cost: .............................................................. .€820 NB: If you wish to use our sound system we typically charge €20 for bass bins, tops, power amp and graphic equaliser and a selection of lighting effects, smoke machine etc as available at the time. We have a small mixer (6 mic inputs) and 3 mics and stands included but you may wish to bring your own mixer and mics. Our power amp has XLR inputs. If your artist needs monitors we may be able to arrange cost effective hire or you may bring these yourself. If your event requires security staff we normally charge just less than half the cost of hiring security staff. For two security staff for 2 hours this would work out at €40 cost to you. We realise it is expensive to stage events and can often help with certain costs. Ring for details.

Info for Promoters

ATTENTION BANDS!!! We are doing our bit to support live music by making the venue and basic PA system free for bands to play here during 2010. To qualify, your set should be 1 hour or more and you need to bring a minimum of 50 people over 18 years of age which can include band members.You may charge a cover charge which you get to keep. Bands bringing over 75 people get a free crate of Miller beer and a bottle of Jack Daniels after the gig. We just can't make it any more Rock n Roll than that!
