I'll leave you to blow your horn! Air Raid Siren will be very difficult to get through the airport.

Anyone know any air rianta check in girls? Being the great guy that I am, I will hit Gibneys this weekend and chat up a few of them, all in the name of Leinster of course.

Yeah, no point in getting a trumpet if you cant play it...you'll just annoy everybody

Yes, they do, TB, and numbers too if you want.

You'd be amazed what I can do after a couple of glasses of Hennessy.

I'll be in Gibney's this weekend too so i can help with chatting to those girls if need be!

Also, should we not be planning on making a different type of noise to what the Toulouse fans will be making. We will want the players to know its us and not just Toulouse supporters. I wouldn't be in favour of buying air raid sirens and the like if thats what the their supporters use.

Right so, with my impending bass drum, combined with a vodka induced sense of musical ability, plus your trumpet, and your very own Hennessy inspired affluence for music....

Drum+Vodka x Trumpet+Hennessy=.....Carnage

It was years ago that we had the air raid siren so it's highly unlikely that I'll be able to get my hands on it anyway. But generally, the more noise the better - we saw that last Saturday, when a small number of Italian supporters made their presence heard.

Hows about we play the song from Deliverance over a Megaphone?

Also, a trumpet is a focking great instrument in the stands (especially if you can actually play it) - you can do that famous tune Duh-Duh-Duh-Daaa-Daaaa!!!

Doh,

Didn't even look, just cut and paste. At least it was the poster and not the leather squadron pants.

Got my drum!!!!

Went into MusicMaker on Exchequer St., and they have a drum palace downstairs!! Was talking to the guy about getting a bass drum, but he said the minimum depth is 18 inches, and are sh!t expensive and heavy!! €1,000

for a marching band bass drum!!!

He told me to get this other drum-TOM something or other, that sits on the ground in a drummers set. It has a deep sound, and is smaller-you can hold it vertically or horizontally. Maybe Dave Cahill knows the one im talking about.

There was a returned one there, for a slight dent, but didnt give a f%~k? coz obviously all i want to do is bang the shite out of it!!!€60 is all it cost, and the big sticks were €30!!!!BARGAIN!!

Anyway, sheepshagger-recommend going in. I told the bloke there was a few of us looking for them, and he was cool about the whole, "I just want to bang the f%~king thing" vibe!!!!
