Thin Lizzy Tribute Warrenpoint April 2019 Eventbrite tickets

Thin Az Lizzy bring their live and almost dangerous show to the Rock on The Lough – The Skylite Rooms, Duke Street, Warrenpoint on Saturday 27 April 2019.

In the words of the great Philip Lynott himself…

The thing that we can now definitely say is that there will always be a Thin Lizzy

…and with Thin Az Lizzy continuing to carry the torch playing this Irish Rock legend’s music, Phil’s words are somewhat prophetic.

If you have not seen this tribute act and are a fan of Thin Lizzy – check out the video below when Thin Az Lizzy last rocked Warrenpoint in 2018.

You can get tickets for the Thin Az Lizzy Show on 27 April 2019 show on Eventbrite HERE

Thin Az Lizzy – The band bringing you Lizzy in all it’s glory are Willie and Paul Owens on dual guitar duties with Johnny ‘D Fox’ Conlan on the all important vocal/bass duties with the man at the back drummer Eddie Gaynor making our hands clap and feet tap.

Formed in 1995, Thin Az Lizzy success grew rapidly and by 1998 they were doing 150 shows a year.

They were touring all around Ireland, Britain, Germany and the Netherlands playing to audiences ranging in size from around 200 to 50,000 at festivals.

The Skylite Room, Duke Street, Warrenpoint – the venue for the Thin Lizzy Tribute night – has become a real hub for live music on the East Coast.

Coolio (yes the Gangsta Paradise worldwide rap hit one) performed on the stage on the Skylite Room last year. 

Other acts such as The Four of Us, Aslan, Flash Harry have also graced the stage of this buzzing venue. Later in the year, Cast – writers of the huge hit Walkaway – will perform in the Skylite Room.

It has a huge sound, smashing atmosphere and if you attend a gig here you’re going to have a good time!

Stories from these places

Story · Warrenpoint

Two Narrow Waters, not one

People often mix them up, but the tower by the water and the big Narrow Water house are two different buildings from two different times. The keep on the shore is a 16th-century defensive tower. The house came later, and belongs to the Hall family's story of running the estate and growing the town.

Look from the keep up towards the estate and spot the difference.

Story · Warrenpoint

Why the castle stands where it does

Narrow Water Keep sits right where the river meets Carlingford Lough, the perfect spot to watch and control who came and went by water. The tower house and its wall date from the 1500s. It looks lovely now, but that spot was chosen for practical reasons, not the view.

Stand by the keep and look down the lough the way the lookouts once did.

Story · Warrenpoint

The castle's front door was the water

The museum's account of Narrow Water records a landing place for boats just outside the east side of the castle wall. People arrived by water as often as by road, because back then boats were how you got about.

Find the spot outside the east wall where the boats once landed.
