I’m getting in touch because I play with a band called Stomptown Brass (an 8 piece New Orleans-style funk brass band from Dublin) and last Saturday night we had a pretty special experience on the streets of Dublin.
We had a gig at Canalaphonic [music festival] on the main stage/barge at 6pm. We then rushed off to another private garden party, but made it back to Canalaphonic just as the last act was finishing.We decided to keep it going and play by the canal, but the security, then the guards, moved us on – much to the dismay of the crowd.
So instead, we start playing “I Feel Like Funkin It Up” as we marched down Camden st/South Richmond st, and ended up with a couple of hundred people following us, singing along, and surrounding us for the next half hour as we played, and held up traffic. The atmosphere was great
