Louis Berry – Restless

Here’s my new music video for Liverpool lad Louis Berry. With this video I wanted to do a surreal take on all the worries and distractions that prevent us from achieving a certain goal. I wanted to make something that was specific to Louis but also something anyone with a restless mind could relate to.
All shot in Cavan Town Hall, with endless help from Cavan locals! :)
In fairness.
Garda Commissioner Noirin O’Sullivan at Garda HQ, Harcourt Street, Dublin 2 last night
Speaking on RTÉ’s Morning Ireland, Assistant Garda Commissioner Michael O’Sullivan said: “We had a contingency plan yesterday, which we suspended at 7am this morning, in which we had a particular deployment of personnel throughout the country, and at no stage did martial law appear in the plan at all, nor was it necessary.”
He said he did not want to discuss the negotiations with the various associations as the process is still ongoing, but he welcomed last night’s developments.
“I simply want to reassure the public that the Garda was there yesterday, there today and will be there tomorrow to protect the communities,” he added.
Right so.
Martial law was never in strike contingency plan, says Assistant Commissioner (RTÉ)

I’m starting to wonder if anyone in Dublin got a ticket for #Radiohead that isn’t a tout or a bot. What’s going on #ticketmaster?

There you go now.
Meanwhile…
But if Radiohead have their way, those touts will be ticketless this Friday. For the Dublin show, the name of the purchaser will be on each ticket and his/her photo identification will be checked at the entrance to the venue to make sure it matches the name on the ticket.

Will this weekend bring us some snow
Well, probably not
But it sure won’t be hot
So wrap yourself tight tomorrow.
