they certainly did, used to love camping down there after gigs

nice line in the hot press link jim posted:

“Connolly’s is a way of life for me," he had told Hot Press in 1994. "And even if at the moment we’re actually working for the bank, to be permanently surrounded by great music in one of the loveliest places in all of Ireland, with great people, a healthy environment and a really humane pace of life to bring kids up in, sure where else would you get it?”

inspirational stuff really
