   About Cathal Coughlan

Autumn, 2060

The action is reflected.

Documentary

Johnny Gogan's film 'The Adventures Of Flannery', a documentary describing my work up to - and especially featuring - the Flannery's Mounted Head show in Cork in 2005, will be showing at the following locations in summer '08:
Irish Film Institute, Dublin - 15th June, 1.00pm. Part of the "Ireland On Sunday" Series
Factory Performance Space, Lower Quay St, Sligo - 19th June 8pm - Flannery graces the home of the experimental Blue Raincoat Theatre Company. Phone: +353 71 9170431
Black Box Belfast - 20th June 8.00pm - Cathedral Quarter
The Dock Arts Centre, Carrick-on-Shannon - 26th June, 8.30pm

Theatre

Some performances of La Noce Des Platines will happen in early 2009. So far, the only definite show is in Trégueux, near St Brieuc, 29/30.01.09.

I was born after I should have been, before, but I learned my lesson.
I was in 2 bands, some evenings ago. They were called The Fatima Mansions and Microdisney. Now I work with good people but there are no bands, because we only play for the people who might like us, and we think that's okay.
I've made 3 albums under my own name.
Why not visit foburg.com and cathalcoughlan.com, which are arguably no more garish than this place, and which at least openly bask in totalitarianism rather than trying to make it look mercantile and sexy.
I would assert, furthermore, that it is important that you all hear the music of Stephen Yerkey

I still listen to all Fatima Mansions music like it came out yesterday. Does that make me gay? Fuck Seattle. Except their football team. I've said too much.

I think yer kewwwwwwwwwl hay hay hayhayhay. My iPod has decided to play Bubonique so it's going to be an interesting hour or so :) Thought I would share. Already shared with Sean. Aindrias still needs a MySpace and I should bug him about that. Me, I should get this cat off my back.

Hoping all is dandy with you. I should sneak your cd into my husband's car stereo because I think he'd like it :)

BIG MOTHER LOVE,
