The Cobblestone is a deep well that quenches the spiritual thirst in a country that is known and loved the whole worldwide over for her spirit of freedom wisdom music and humour and culture
I was at the Cobblestone that night - magical, and something to be treasured and supported. What’s recorded here shows the breadth of traditional music, from the old songs and styles to a song about the pandemic. The genre is alive and vital and The Cobblestone an essential venue for it.
I loved the piece by Emmet O'Brien at the end. My family is from Waterford but I lived and worked in Dublin. Dublin is the only city in the world where you can live in the past, present and future all at the same time. I love the place and for me he captured it.
thank you so much for uploading this. I have such fond memories of both Dublin and this pub. I think I've never felt more at home in my life than when I used to live in Dublin. I'm in tears right now - happy, nostalgic tears
As a Swedish tourist that visited dublin a couple of years ago and spent an evening at the cobblestone i can just say i loved it. It’s such an amazing place. I can’t wait too come back sometime!

I wish those reciting “spoken word” would not have adopted an American cadence to their poetry. All modern/popular poetry need not be Slam Poetry with urban/rap/Black American influences. Stay true to your cultural roots.
I sketched many musicians there, nice memories so glad it's still standing, music is so important soothes the soul.

I'm old enough to remember when artists were horrified by apartheid.

The whole night was brilliant and the three poets were my highlights. Love from Belfast
Somebody tell Meabh to put that on Spotify. Goosebumps of the beautiful kind!
