Rubberbandits

Comedic genius or verbal diarrhoea. Rubber Bandits have went too far down the rabbit hole. The only thing is they want you to come too. No statement of intent apart from teaching Ice Cube "... the proper way to swing a hurley" among other things..

On to warming up for the man himself and fulfilling that particular goal. The 'Bandits also hosted a 2000 person Moustache Party on the banks of the River Shannon. So clearly anything goes. Rubberbandits have via prank phone calls, songs and riotous live shows emerged as the country's surrealists beyond compare.

Straddling the comedy and music worlds like a tracksuit wearing colossus, Blind Boy Boat Club and Mr. Chrome have manipulated and bullied their way to a level far beyond either their talent or intellect. Songs like "Bag of Glue", "Too Many Gee" and "Up Da Ra" have made them the 12th most popular MySpace page in the whole of Ireland, beaten only by traditional Irish bands who aren't even from here. Their live show, which has sold out in Limerick, Dublin and Dungarvan's Lower East Side is basically a Prime Time special on the Limerick gangs, sniffing glue as an aphrodisiac when encountering larger ladies, horses...the list goes on. Blindboy Boat Club and Mr. Chrome will present a perspective on life that only two roadside fruit sellers who got a start selling mix tapes through local Limerick drug dealers can provide. Check them out at the Picnic and remember tong is firmly in cheek. Or is it...
