Close your eyes, point your fingers on a world map and you’ll probably hit an Irish Pub. Some countries conquer with weapons, others do it with drinking establishments 😉
When the Irish Pub called Mulligan’s in Deutsch-Wagram (a town close to where we lived in Austria) got refurbished we were asked by the new owner to be the band for the opening party. As usual back then, we had Philipp Wolf on the drums and Michael “Moz” Mozeth on the bass with us.
Everyone had a wonderful evening, with lots of dancing, singing and laughing. We remember to have made many new friends that day, most notably the guys from “Craesh” who we played a joint live concert at “Aera” with later. (It was the one that some of our earliest fans from various places in Europe attended live, and of which we uploaded 5 videos on YouTube.)
They also helped us out with the diving equipment when we filmed the “Nothing Is In Vain” video. So all in all you can say the Irish shamrock brought us luck.
Stay groovy!

Great photos. Looks like everyone was having a great night.
One of my favourite gigs to play is at a local Irish pub. Always goes off well.
Yes I think Irish Pubs are everywhere. We have a few in Vancouver and I recall some very popular and hip ones to hang out at usually with big line ups. Back in the mid 80s when I lived in Toronto for a couple years, a coworker friend was Irish and took me to some Irish community center festivities to enjoy the awesome Irish culture and fun. I wish I had appreciated a good Irish brew back then as much as I do now. I remember facing a hard time if I ever showed up to work without wearing green on St Patrick’s Day.
Some nice photos here of you both performing. Every live shot in different venues you show us here look unique with it’s own vibe and character, which is why these are so enjoyable to see. Thanks for sharing these. 🙂
