Default Shane MacGowan in Aberdeen??

Got a text off my mate earlier tonight saying Shane and The Dubliners are playing at Fitzpatricks on Saturday night.

Not heard it anywhere else.

Can anyone confirm if it is happening?

Is that the Irish pub which replaced the Abdn Union (Pivo).

Always seems empty when I walk past. Perhaps this is a cunning ploy to round up some new trade?

I heard this rumour too. I also noticed that they have signs up saying that you get half price drink with an Irish passport. I've watched a couple of football matches in there and it has never been that busy.

One of whom offered to buy my tracksuit top off me.

Very much doubt the Dubliners will be there even if the rumour is true. Fitzpatrick is pretty shite though but wouldn't mind going along to see if this is true.

I've heard this rumour too and would really like to know if it's true!

Fitzpatricks has the honour for me of being the "worst pint of lager in town" after I visited it last weekend. Just went in past on the way back into Castlegate from King Street Seriously, the worst pint ever. Flat, discoloured and tasted like lead. A poorly decorated and lifeless pub with more staff than punters as well.

Wouldnae care if Shane was appearing on Saturday, though!!!

I'm on the case now..................

Its been advertised all week on Original 106 so unless they are speaking shite i guess its going ahead this sat...

But the place is shite. If an Irish bar cant get rammed with Shane McGowen playing it, it should just close its doors now....

I say bring back Smart Alec's
