Events: Stand up against the Bankers @ Anseo December 7th

Do you want to support Occupy Dame Street but are unsure how? Well Aidan Killian may have the answer for you. He has organised a charity gig with all proceeds going to the Occupy Dame Street people. This event is €8 in. If you cannot afford €8 donate whatever you can, all who show respect for the acts are welcome. There is an excellent line up on the night including Dean Scurry who is a resident of Occupy Dame Street as your MC for the evening, Jim Elliot who recently found his soul, Shane Browne known for his conspiracy theories, Enda Muldoon who is critically acclaimed as a “creative genius” and Aidan Killian will be your headliner.
