I can't remember the name of any place I was in over there (probably better off...) but there is a club at Charles Bridge and it was pretty cool. Five levels. You can't miss it. There is also a pub called Zoo or something like that and it stays open late and the music wasn't too bad in there. I'll try to remember more and let you know. By the by - it is cold in September (as I'm sure know) so bring plenty of jumpers and/or drink plenty of Absynth. Actually, watch out for that stuff. It varies in strength from place to place so be careful not to drink too much of it or not to get overly confident of your ability to handle it (bad, but funny, experience).

you can pretty much do as they do in amsterdam there with regard to weed

Avoid drinking Bekerovka, unless you want to wake up married...to a porn star!!!

what would be wrong with wakin up married to porn star?!

Cheers for the advice folks. Ill try check out those bars. I think ill avoid the Absynth. Sounds dangerous. Hmm...waking up married to a porn star.. Interesting dilemma.

Be sure to check out some of the Jazz clubs (if thats your cupa), I saw some really good musicians when I was there. Also, its well worth going to the opera when you re there, the theatre on Wesselsssquare is deadly - I was there 5 years ago and it was £7 to go.

Watch out for any gang wars involving grenade attacks on casinos!

Better check the insurance cover for the "grenade attack" scenario

I hear that Hibernian Insurance do an excellent comprehensive deal covering all unforseen circumstances including grenade attacks and sexually transmitted diseases. Definitely worth checking out. If you never have been victim of a grenade attack before, the premiums should be very low.

if you're from clonmel ("the 'mel") or presumably from certain parts limerick, then it is assumed you have basic grenade attack reaction expierience and so a reduced rate is available
