Remembering Ireland writes:

Angelus (Six O’Clock Rock, 1988). One of the more popular bands in the Catholic Heavy Metal scene, Angelus was an attempt to court youth back to the church by Fr Darts Fallon (vocals), Brother Spartacus Brady (lead guitar) Fr Thane O’Lysaght (rhythm guitar) Monsignor Hollywood Momoa (bass) and Bishop Edward Daly (drums). After 14 top 40 hits and three minor miracles, the band split in 1990 following a bar fight in Dresden with touring partners, TABERNACLE.

Anyone?

BONG!

These exclusive areas offer a safe haven for those who wish to relax and unwind behind closed doors, whilst those seeking complete privacy may indulge in a new luxurious private room, which has been created in the Penthouse.

SPLUTTER!

This deluxe new suite will accommodate groups of up to twelve and boasts a dedicated service bell and private en-suite.

Have we learned NOTHING?
