“Fornication!”
Earlier this week, it was announced that The Trip To Tipp was making a comeback, with The Hothouse Flowers, The Stunning and loads more announced for the Feile Classical festival.
Set to take place in Thurles on Saturday 22 September, it will bring back some major memories (or not) for anyone looking to recreate the fun they were having back in the 1990s.
If you were there back in the day, check to see if you can spot yourself or anyone you know in the photo-album we’ve compiled right here.
On Saturday night, Tom Dunne joined Ryan Tubridy on The Late Late Show to reminisce about the Feile back in the day, and we’ve got to say… it sounds like a hell of a time…

And everyone watching from home had the exact same reaction we did:

One of my mates lost his virginity in the dressing rooms in Semple Stadium at a Feile/Trip to Tipp. True story

Later in the show, Tom took up the mic for leading man duties for his band Something Happens, and belted out a live rendition of ‘Forget Georgia’ for the audience:

And once again, everyone watching at home had the exact same reaction:
