The Gate pub in South Main Street, Youghal will host an open mic night on Tuesday July 28th. Music, poetry, stories and general free expression within (or only barely outside) the libel laws were synonymous on such nights back when the old pub was known as the Clock and heavy rain could blow the electrics!

As then, all in attendance are invited to contribute. Humourist poet Christy Parker, a recent guest at Lismore’s Immrama festival and Paul Casey, renowned poet from Cork’s O’Bheal poetry group, plus other O’Bheal guests, are also expected to perform. Music by Dave Scully. Starts about 9.15

























this is exciting!
