The Rats played to a packed bar room in Dublin tonight. After the vast Blackheath Halls, the smaller more intimate Whelan's in the heart of Dublin was the perfect venue to see and hear the band. The full set was played, except for the yet to be rehearsed numbers, and when they ran out of songs, they played Mary of the Fourth Form again.

As close as you'll ever get to recreating the days of playing Moran' s and there were even some younger fans lapping it up. A great homecoming.
Now the band tour with The Blockheads and From The Jam, in a series of gigs in the UK.
