Thanks for stopping by our page.
Welcome to the The Limerick Event Guide [ L.E.G ] a monthly, 36 page colour magazine loaded with previews, interviews, listings and reviews of gigs and events in Limerick city and beyond. But mostly in Limerick.
The L.E.G came about in October 2001 because the Eightball crew, ( that's us ) believed that the great live music, comedy, theatre, festivals, fashion and Limerick city life in general deserved to be talked about more comprehensively and with a little bit of style. Other people agreed and with plenty of support along the way, the 100th issue of LEG was published in September 2008. Not ones to tarry, we carried on into the second century of LEG with a redesign in October 2008.
L.E.G can be picked up in 200 bars, cafes, stores, stations, venues, colleges and other outlets across Limerick city and surburbia and you can read it online right here
The Limerick Event Guide is an Eightball Promotions and Media Production.
Eightball Promotions & Media have been booking, running and promoting live artists, dj's and festivals in Limerick city and sometimes outside for almost a decade. For the high - ups and lowdowns of how we fill our days please take the time to visit www.eightball.ie
Who I'd like to meet: Musicians, artists, theatre players, gig lovers, dj's, dancers, photographers, film makers, graphic artists, fashion designers and fashion lovers, producers, writers, reviewers and anybody who does what they do from the heart and in a place where people can come and see you.

Hi Sarah, thanks for listening and chuffed you like them. We're playing a show upstairs in Dolans soon enough I think, supporting some friends of ours The Chapters. Dolans is nearly always a good night :)
Hi Sarah just wanted to say thank you for organising the review for Chunky Planet in your November issue. Really appreciated! Hoping to get Chunky Planet over to Limerick in the new year for a gig, so will indeed be in touch! All the best for now Linda x
Its been a while and we thought it was about time we updated you on what we've been up to. Our debut EP Little World is now available at our gigs and will soon be available from our myspace and facebook pages, you will also be able to download it from itunes, but we don't have a release date for this as yet.
To celebrate the fact that we have now reached 25,000 plays on myspace, we are giving you a free MP3 of Rockabye Baby. All you have to do is send your email address to queen.elvis@yahoo.ie and we will send it to you.
We have spent the last year rehearsing with a full band and are now ready to bring it on the road. You can get a look at us when we appear on Balcony TV this week with the full line up. We are currently taking bookings for gigs/concerts/festivals and can be contacted on the email above, or through our myspace and facebook pages.
Thankyou for your continued support in what has been a great year for us!

But we love all the comments and support we have from our good friends and we love to see you coming by our place.
