The makings of a house concert circuit?

Thanks to Colin Coscoran in Kinsale, Co. Cork, who has seen the BIB's reports of house concerts with interest, because

I've been putting on house shows since July to great success, and basically wanted to make a link. We had:

July: By and By String Band (Louisiana old timey /country /bluegrass)
September: Pine Hill Haints (Alabama ghost country /skiffle /what have you /punk)
November: Niamh De Barra (Drone Loops Beats electronic - one-lady band from Dublin)
November: 10 (post rock/ electronic/ idm / noise from korea and japan)

In December we have the Oilskins from Oregon playing country and death metal. So if you know bands that wanna play in a lovely big house in Kinsale, then let'm drop a line...

We have no promotion for the gigs as such and no guest list whatsoever; bands get free food and lodging and we pass the hat around. Worked well so far! punk rock!

Contact Colin by e-mail or 'phone (087 7882364).
