Damn Vandals ? with a ten plus years career playing vital, garage grunge rock and roll, and a back catalogue of three superb albums, Damn Vandals have always been fixtures at Bugbear HQ?so this might be their somethy somethingth gig?but everyone?s a winner. Dark, prowling rock loaded with throbbing intent and soaring choruses. Featuring fabulous razor-sharp guitars and one of the best, sonorous,  dark brown voices in the kick ass end of indie rock.

 Martha Makes Mistakes ? fronted by glamorous mover shaker Jess, this ripping indie rock troupe straddle singer songwriterly introspection with kick ass alt rock power. Lots of sass and sexuality and proper attitude. 

It?s Irrelevant ? what more can you say. It?s Irrelevant, knowhorrimean?.

Description

The Dublin Castle is a legendary pub and music venue located 2 minutes away from Camden Town tube station. It has been run by the same family for over 28 years and features 4 live bands every night as well as a great selection of beers, ciders and wines.

There are DJs after the bands on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays and a fabulous jukebox in the front bar if you’re after a more relaxed atmosphere.

But what is it that makes the Dublin Castle the long-standing centre of the indie rock universe? Is it because it’s Madness’ birthplace? Because its stage has been graced by everyone from Blur, through Coldplay, Supergrass, The Killers, The Arctic Monkeys, Billy Bragg, etc? Is it because it was no surprise to see Amy Winehouse behind the bar serving costumers? Or Suggs? (who, mind you, tended to ignore costumers and serve himself) Or is it because far from being just another Camden venue it has established itself as an indie rock institution? The answer is that it’s not only because of its musical heritage that people come to the Dublin Castle, it’s because whilst you enjoy a pint, play some tunes on the jukebox, check out the live bands, get your dancing shoes on for our DJs, chat to our friendly staff or even stage-invade a little, you’re inadvertently being part of this movement the Dublin Castle leads, this cultural legacy. Expect no castle battlements. Just pure rock and roll royalty.
