Out on a Limb 10 Year Anniversary
Limbering up for one hell of a party…
Cherished Limerick label Out On A Limb celebrate ten years in an unforgiving business in two weekends time with an-all day get-together in their home city. The Irish indie – home to Peter Delaney, Rest, Owensie, windings and more – sets up shop in both Bourke’s (from 2.30pm until 5.30pm) and long term live cohorts Dolan’s for a day long celebration of a decade’s work both celebrating, promoting and releasing independent Irish music.
With such strong Cork connections (Ten Past Seven, Elk, the aforementioned Rest, the now – sadly – defunct Waiting Room and Hooray For Humans and of course OOAL co-founder Albert Twomey now of Plugd Records) here’s hoping the OOAL lads bring the anniversary show on tour. Unlikely but a man can dream can’t he…
Highlight of the night is already wrapped up in the punk-rock shape of the one-off reformation of Giveamanakick, whose 2003 full-length Is It Ok To Be Loud, Jesus? kickstarted ten years of OOAL releases before disbanding in 2009.
The line-up for Saturday 10th August (no specific running order as of yet):
| Bourke’s Bar | Dolan’s |
| Peter Delaney (3.30pm) | Crayonsmith (8.30pm) |
| Hidden Highways (3.50pm) | Windings (9.30pm) |
| Owensie (4.40pm) | Elk (9.30pm) |
| Jogging (11.30pm) | |
| giveamanakick (12.30am) |
