Wahoooo we've loads of stuff on this week, so much that we're concerned for our health, but fear not as we will brave the elements and ill advised alcohol consumption to bring you quality gigs at knock down prices.

Then on Friday for Final Friday Irelands own Hystereo will be lashing out the Techno in the Quarter club while Limerick Hiphop posse Bullitz perform in the Courtyard.

We've also got our studio open day on as well which will feature guest lectures from Aurther Baker, Mark Rae, Mike McCoy and others about DJing, Music Production, Club Promotion and much much more.
Sunday then we're off to Dublin to play at Mayfest as guests of Collective Music. I'm getting tired just writing it :)

On Saturday we have Irelands premier HipHop DJ, DJ Flip with support from Limericks DJ Leon and A2DF.
Trevor Rockcliffe
A big congratulations to the STRUTT lads for putting on a great gig in Dolans on Sunday night. Dan had the crowd rocking from the start, Cian and Shane kept them going for two hours and then Mr Rockcliffe tore the place apart when he came on. A great night and the first of many for the STRUTT lads.
*** BEBO ***
We've a Bebo page !! seems like everyone in the country has one so we decided to get in on the action. You can get to it by clicking here, or by searching for "VivamusicLimerick". Draw on the whiteboard, leave us a message, tell us what you want to see at the VIVA nights, have your say :)
CJ Fitz and Jamie Behans set from VIVA last week is now online. We've split it into 3 parts as it would be far to big to download as one file. There's four and a half hours of Techno there for your listening pleasure. Click here and the sets are on the righthand side under the heading "VIVA Sets" (funnily enough :)
Playing at tomorrows VIVA are all the Vivamusic DJ's and we've the Big Wheels coming for "Just Add People" on Saturday, with Dan and Donie playing at the Trevor Rockcliffe gig on Sunday there's loads of quality music on offer around town this weekend.
