Running Out Of Pluck

The writing’s on the wall…

s more and more people moan that they don’t make nights out like they used to around here, it’s clear these feckers have never made it to Pluck’s.

With the live music turned up to 11 and not a would-be Instagram influencer in sight, this Kilmac drinking hole would always bring the craic.

Thanks to top-of-the-range covers warblers such as Austin Prior and Karl Ivers (a man who may very well live in the basement at Pluck’s), you were guaranteed to know, and very possibly love, each and every song.

And now, Caroline and Shane are moving on to pastures greener – or sunnier, to be precise – with a fond farewell on Saturday. September 23rd.

Bring a hanky. And a sleeping bag.

There will be music, there will be prizes, there will be rugby, and there will be tears for beers, as you take a step back in time. And while you’re bopping the night away, be sure to wish Caroline and Shane bon voyage…

There will be a quieter, final fling on Sunday, with the Ivers lad bringing the ballads from 7pm to 9pm.

They will be sorely missed in Kilmacanogue, especially given that the future of the Pluck’s building has yet to be revealed by its owners, Aspenwoods Holding Limited, despite numerous requests from locals.
