Quiet enough week this week as we get back to whatever normailty should be for 2020. Friday has plenty going on with three punk gigs clashing. At least the Dando Sessions is a late one so if you want to catch Last reserves you will be able to stroll down from Whelans or Bohs and see them. In Bohs that night is Rixe from France with anti-fascist songster, Jollars along with Surge and Grit. A pure outpouring of diy punk. in Whelans is the other side of the diy scene in Dublin as Chewing On Tinfoil sell out yet another gig in a completely independent manner. I was at their Grand Social sell-out in September and am looking forward to gatecrashing the party again on Friday. On Saturday Protex are in town with dubtones alongside Gavin and the icons. A great weekend for sure
