About me:
In October 1994 we started a club night quietly in the newly opened U2’s Kitchen on East Essex St, Dublin, Ireland – within four weeks, the club was turning away hundreds of people. What made this night unique was that it was on a Monday Night, usually the quietest night around town and its music policy was strictly based on playing 80’s chart hits. The rest is history... Now we've brought it to Friday nights - get your weekend on! Handbag Sugar Club

Jim Jones Revue Irish Debut with Support from The Urges + Dandelion - November 16th

Sassy Sue's Go-Go Inevitable is honored to host the Irish debut of London based filthy rock n rollers The Jim Jones Revue. Rising out of the ashes of The Hypnotics, those legendary garage rockers, JIm Jones' new outfit has already received the blessing of the high priest of new wave sleaze rock John Spencer [The Blues Explosion]. And is poised to bring the indie/ garage/ psych rock crossover into the mainstream.

The Jim Jones Review play nasty rock n roll, channeling the 1950's, it's triumph motor cycles kicking up gravel, bitchy girls with big hair snapping their gum. This, the original Devil's music, live and loud for your rocking pleasure.

Support on the night comes from Sassy Sue's favorite son's The Urges Proving that in Sassy Sue's even Mods and Rockers can get along. DJ sets from Jim and Dandelion. A night not to be missed. Tickets €15.00

Well hello there.....

Just to let you know we are officially trying to stuff the big boys this Christmas with our independent Christmas single entitled...

"SANTAZ DILEMMA".

We need like minded mentalists, who are, to be honest, absolutely stark raving bonkers, to help us promote the record.

If you feel you fall into this category, or even if you don't, take a look at the video for our song “IT'S ABSOLUTELY BARKING”...

 Let's all stagger and make this an xmas no.1

So if you feel like giving the likes of Simon Cowell and their particular brand, of what can only be described as knob cheese, a good stuffing this Christmas......Spread the gospel...and

"STAGGER"....We are....Will you ?

Lurve, Pies and Pees,

Ol' Red Eyes XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

so good to see some things haven't changed in Dublin and Strictly Handbag is still going strong! Good job! I also remember the days of Strictly Fish at Power's Hotel...I used to help Sandra and Anita stick all the fish to the walls with blutack and draw fish onto the pavements with crayons, what fun we had! Hope all is well in Dublin! Ali x
