    They changed the who posted the blog thing so it looks like the band posted the blog so editing up these a bit and cleaning up the blog a bit while I'm at it... Petals!!!

    Add more memories peeps :)

    ----------------------------

    Angie being the only quite one in the band, she never answered back or anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
     !!!!!

    Pile-on's at the back of the bus, they were so sore, i'm still affected by them (no comment to that anybody)[Angie]

    20 or so of us sitting on the toilet thing at back of bus (how it didn't collapse i'll never no!!

    David walker getting sick on the bus in holland, he howled like a bear

    Knacker drinking out side the cop station in clonmel(thrust us!!!!)

    Paddy ice skating, has to be the funniest sight to see

    Madeleine's lunch box (egg and onion sandwich, what a stink)

    Fighting with brian gallagher in campden town, london

    Aine and her soppy tapes on the bus

    Leona o'neill falling in a big puddle with her accordion on, she was wearing them big band mac's, that was hilarious (sorry leona)

    John doyle falling when he was carring the bass drum and the xylophone

    E-street, clonmel= only a few will remember that!!!!!!!!!1

    Fisher asking a woman in ballygar who had big massive tits "do u want a hand with them, love"

    Handcuffs.....they seemed to come on every trip. Remember Paddy getting handcuffed to an accordion case one time and Simon N getting handcuffed to a tree in Clonmel...was he semi naked that time as well? In Chester the girls went in and handchufffed Carol Dunne to the bed and put toothpaste in her hair and eyebrows n all over her!!!

    Nicknames...a few people got given silly nicknames and were called by them for years after!! How did yee ever come up with some of them........Petals for example?

    Practices...lots of shouting about pulling the bellows.

    Denmark... Niall O'Neill walking into a little Pole thingy when we were performing.

    Poland..Angie jumping out of the press and scaring the crap out of people. Peter Byrne got it all on camera as well :L

    Tralee.. People getting thrown into the swimming pool if they weren't swimming

    Putting cling film on the toilet bowl (possibly in Boyle) and David Power went in to use the toilet, needless to say he was destroyed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Angie fighting with one of the drummers from the Golden Eagles in Navan!!!!!!!!!

    Hanging mangan on coat hooks in clonmel and leaving him there for ages

    Also locking mangan in the toilet on the bus the whole way back from clonmel cause he wouldnt stop farting!!!!!!!!!!

    In Roscommon and the "little" ones were left in the hall when the rest of the band went out and the hall got attacked by some idiots throwing stones at the hall and taking the valve thingys off the wheels of the bus so the air went out of them and we couldn’t go home the next day til Paddy Murphy got the wheels fixed.

    The Shiny red and white tracksuits… dodgy or what?!!! :L :L :L

    On the way home from bristol and William Redmond was asleep on the bus and the girls put makeup on him! he went on 2 the boat wit it on! lol it was so funnny!

    Someone slipping in horse shit in birmingham. cant remember who though!

    Stayin in the rat infested hall in bristol!!!!

    Someone (ahem.. Angie *cough* ) sticking a sanitary towel on Simon's back and letting him walk around all day with it on, he even went into a packed chipper and walked right up in front of everyone to see the score of a match on telly (the gobshite!!!!!!!)

    A few of us getting caught drinking by dorothy and marie in clonmel! God i was so scared of Marie back then, and she knows it!

    ”Another would be that famous drum beat david walker played on the quads, I LOVED IT!” {Aine}

    All the band competitions, James Bond was the best show we ever put on for sure, we were only deadly!

    The craic we used 2 have at the back of the bus, playin kiss dares!

    The song we had for Paddy..."hey paddy hey pa
