FYI at the Cork film Festival Oct 18th two documentaries about the Shed End and Sir Henrys in the Bodega. Absolute must see films about youth culture in the early 90's/late 80's in Cork/Ireland. For people who were there at the time, you must not miss this. Hopefully they'll be taken up and shown by RTE.

What about people who were (albeit luckily) not there at the time, or at any time come to think of it...... ?

Still worth watching. Second date added of the 19th but apparently both showings sold out. Even more reason for RTE to pick these up.. Anyone working for RTE out there.....????

You're missing my point I think. Anyone from outside Cork (yeah yeah the REAL capital) wouldn't be interested......

WTF! real capital what are you on about. Nobody calls it that in Cork anymore, that term is cringworthy rubbish spouted by people trying to wind up dubs, obviously worked on you.
120 bpm - Its a doc about Irish youth culture. Henrys was the first/second (well Zoes in Cork was the first) rave/house club in Ireland. Everyone with any knowledge of House/Rave acknowledges its pioneering role in terms of the Irish House scene. In the early days clubbers from Belfast and Dublin would travel down, it was thee club in Ireland.

The Shed End at Turners Cross was probably the most famous terrace during the 90's, nearly always full and always intimidating. i suppose it may be of interest to other EL fans and those interested in youth culture.

Both may be of interest to anyone travelling down for the Irelands oldest Film Festival. As both are sold out I think it would great for them to be brought to a wider audience, sorry if that offends your parochial sensibilities.

Ok yeah.


anyone that remembers Henrys has had too much ear splitting nonsense to function as a human being.

The Shed end earned Cork City numerous League titles, cups and European success, oh wait a minute, it didnt.

Ye all still go on about the real capital and the PROC, dont kid yourselves !

I'm sure there is a Pyschologist somewhere that could deal with your issues, until then relax. You don't have to read the thread, you could post somewhere else giving out about Corkies, maybe even start your own thread. Same applies if you have no interest in House/Rave/Dance culture. Same applies if you have no interest in Terrace culture amongst football fans in Ireland but both these screenings are probably the first IRISH documentaries on the subject matters.

Maybe as you suggest I'm not capable of functioning as human being because I like House music (amongst alot of other genre) but you are the only one showing intolerance. Functioning as a human being includes tolerating the fact that we all have different tastes, etc.
