Morning. I did ask around and we don't think there are any Soul nights coming up in Cork, unfortunately. However, if you check out Munster Scooter Club Ireland on FB, then a few of the lads from Cork, might know of something. Hope this helps and enjoy your trip over. Regards, Shane Thanks Roburt, I'll check out those shops next time I am there. ATB, Shane

Hi Wally, no worries at all. Cork is a lively spot, and I'm sure you'll get a warm welcome. Not sure about events, but leave it with me and I'll try and find out. Cheers, Shane

My pleasure Steve. I guess the Twilight Zone on the 19th October in Inchicore, Dublin would be your best bet. If you are travelling around the country, there are some lovely spots such as Galway, Clifden, Westport, Leitrim, etc. Think about flying into Shannon as well. Enjoy your trip and give me a shout if you need anything else. ATB, Shane

Hi Stephen, There are various soul nights happening over the next few months, with the vast majority in Dublin. D8 Soul Club, Sleepless Nights, Twilight Zone and Bubbles Mod club run fairly regular events around Dublin, but depends when you are over. There might also be events elsewhere but if you can let me know dates you are over, I'll see what I can find out. There are also regular record fairs most weekends, so again, if you can let me know which areas you are visiting, I'll try and source ones closest to you. Finally, you can leave the factor 50 at home, but just ensure you bring your rain jacket! Hope this helps. ATB, Shane
