“Lots and lots of indie music; dashes of 80’s synth, motown, and jive music.

You will NEVER hear the same song two weeks in a row…

You will hear songs from the likes of arctic monkeys/strokes etc, but it wont be the songs you have hear a million times at other club nights…..also, music from the likes of ladyhawke/lykke li/mystery jets/neon neon/girls aloud etc., which for some reason you never hear when out”

Seems like this could be a bit of laugh. As great and all as Whelans and Doyles are on a Thursday or Friday night, they do seem play the same songs all the time. Doyles is particularly bad for this, you pretty much know it’s like ten to two when ‘Love Cats’ by the Cure comes on, promptly followed up by ‘Hey Boy Hey Girl’ by the Chemical Brothers, then ‘Out of Space’ by the Prodigy to top it all off… I can’t really comment on Antics because I rarely go there and whenever I have gone, I’d be too fucked to remember what they played.

The poster above neglects to mention that this is on in the Twisted Pepper on Abbey Street.
