REGGIE FOR PRESIDENT
Sunday 11th August, Lee Rowing Club | Doors 7pm
🎟 Tickets available from magicnightsbythelee.com
Gates open for pre-drinks 5pm (Open To The Public)
Reggie from the Blackrock Road, is the richest man in Ireland. (But not for tax purposes.)
He has over 80,000 followers on social media attracted by his videos mocking Liz Truss, poor taste and the people of Kilmallock. After years of tyranny under Michael D. Higgins Reggie has decided to run for Uachtarán na hÉireann.
In the run up to the election in 2025, Reggie will visit corners of Ireland which have been by-passed by progress and advances in personal hygiene. He will be in the Lee Rowing Club on August 18th. That’s very brave considering it involves Reggie walking down the Marina, which is full of people in Glen Rovers jersies.
Great night guaranteed, you’ll be laughing all the way home.

⭐ SMITHEREENS & MAICIN ⭐
Friday 9th August, Lee Rowing Club
Over the last few months Smithereens have burst onto the Cork and Irish rock scene. Winning UCC Battle of the Bands, with studio time and a Cyprus Avenue Headline gig as prizes means even more momentum for the 5-piece jazz/funk/rock fusion band. Smithereens were described as ‘High energy, fun, and one of a kind’ by one judge at UCC Battle of the Bands, and as ‘A mix of jazz and punk, ‘junk’ in the best way possible!’ by another.
Maicín are Happy Sad Men with an EP from producer Oli Deakin (CMAT) on the way. Their songs are both irreverent and deeply personal ranging from helpless romanticism to the shtick on a nice pint of Beamish.
