“We were the people who were not in the papers. We lived in the blank white spaces at the edges of print. It gave us more freedom. We lived in the gaps between the stories.”

Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid’s Tale (1985)

Kinselas residency was great. As were the WTM's .

You gals were scary, Wild & wonderful .

Goodbar was a gas . Paul Stenmark was onto it & seeing you guys downstairs late was a blast. The Cruel Sea residency was pretty great as well. Fun times & Zanzibar as well, when Kellet st was alive every night .

Fabulous musical times 👍 Lo

Love hearing about past experiences, adventures & at times mind blowing, surprising, and living on the edge, taking risks & surviving any circumstances that can appear unannounced before your very eyes .

Dear ol’ Kinselas hey 😉 what an amazing building & It’s past history . . I have danced so many times in there, upstairs & down in the front bar at 6 am, I couldn’t possibly even count the amount in figures on my hands . . But I can say for sure, that I could never imagine ever, being inside that place for a whole night totally alone 👻 as a dare or for a million bucks - No way, I would be terrified.

There were so many wonderful old warehouses close by and down the road from Kinselas.

Many turning into dream like ( for me ) residences, but sadly those developers saw bucks in their eyes & demolished / delibrately burnt down beautiful parts of history, around the Taylor Sq area 😔

‘I have a short film wrap party story to tell you about one day, & my experience while there . . it was in one of those gorgeous old warehouses during the 90’s ‘ 👍

Cheers Lo , have a beautiful week x ally
