Also, in that exhibition Rory Gallagher’s fender Stratocaster which he bought in from in 1963.

The City Library (Corcaigh) has a commemoration calendar of Rory Gallagher, and the photos are daycent, but special mention for mí Lúnasa/August.

The pic is taken down the Arcadia (RIP) which was across the road from Kent Station (did CIE own it?). Anyway, the boy Rory is five feet high in the air, mid flight and killing it, and stage left are two buckos who couldn’t be less impressed if he turned the Lee into a river of stout! One of them even has the classic arms folded pose; the other lad, just, can’t, even.😂😂🙈
God knows who or what the pair thought they were going to see?
Great pic whoever took it. Courtesy of Strange Music. And this calendars: saor in aisce.

Raffaele Muraca is currently at work on the Pavillion (how many pavs do we have in Cork!!!???) down along the Marina. Raffaele’s been commissioned to paint a new mural on the walls of the charming pavilion which sits on the banks along the Marina Promenade. The Atlantic Pond is nearing completion and the whole upgrade is smashing it and will undoubtedly be on of the best public amenities in the city on completion.

Raffaele’s proposal, entitled ‘Marina Flow’, features the flora and fauna local to the marina interwoven with the rich history and daily activities of the promenade via

Doubtcha kiddo.
