An estimated 4000 to 5000 LGBT people and their loved ones (not including cute puppies) marched for marriage equality in Dublin’s city centre this afternoon.

Tonight (Aug 19th) sees the launch of sisters at Madonna’s. Hosted by Ms Lesbatron the event is at 9pm til late. Admission €7/€5.

Oh, you remember Tegan and Sara. They played recently in Dublin’s Olympia (the night of the P!nk near-riot in PantiBar). Well, I for one missed their free gig earlier that day in Tower Records. But now we bring you that gig in two parts! Plus, there’s more

There are a few new nights starting up over the coming weeks, as well as some great one off events, so we here at Gaelick thought it would be a good idea to put them all into the one post for ease of your social lives!

Well, can you Adam-and-Steve it, folks, it’s been thirteen whole days since the last Gaelick news round-up? So, what has been happening in that intervening period? Lesbian LOLs? Sapphic surprises? Dishing the dykey dirt? Read on!

As mentioned previously in our competition for 2-for-1 entry to the night, the second Rock.Indie.Pop, Dublin’s newest alternative gay night, takes place this Friday. Gaelick met with Scarlett Nymph, driving force with Sedition Industries and one of the DJs at this Friday’s installment.

The folks over at RIP have offered Gaelick readers an exclusive offer for their next event, which takes place on Friday the 23rd of July. They are giving Gaelick readers two entries for the price of one at the door. To avail of this, you are just asked to comment on this post using a either a full name (or first name and last initial), by 3pm on Friday 23rd and you”ll be added to a Gaelick two-for-one list.

We love you so much we have free stuff for your pleasure. Friday is the opening night of Pussy Wagon, the George’s new, monthly ladies’ night, and we have not only free passes but also free drinks coupons. Interested?

In court today was Sandra Talbot, accused of assaulting her ex-partner. Sounds anything but comical. However, it turns out that Sandra was with friends in The George at a fancy-dress party back in 2007. She was dressed in an inflatable sumo-wrestler outfit. Apparently she went nuts when her ex-partner, Adrienne Martin, tried to wave at a bloke dressed as a Snickers.

This year, Dublin’s Dyke Night will be raising awareness about breast cancer as well as raising your awareness of women’s breasts. Like you needed it. Tickle me Pink is gone bigger and better than the last Dyke Nights with a new venue and a world-class headline act in Wallis Bird.

Never mind next week’s Dyke Night. With Pink (and possibly Heathers) out on the town in Dublin, last night’s Tegan and Sara gig at the Olympia marked quite the celesb-fest.

Celebrating 15 years of fabulous music making! Gloria, Dublin’s Lesbian and Gay Choir return with their unique mix of Musicals, Madrigals, Classical and Camp. The evening of fun and music is hosted by the fabulous Miss Panti.

Guess what, kids? Monday, 17th May, is International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia, aka IDAHO. And this year, to mark this important day, a Great Global Kiss-In is taking place. Plus, in Ireland, Changing Attitude is organising services open to all.

The weather is starting to improve, the jackets are being put away and the shorts are being whipped out. We here at Gaelick HQ had a chat about what sort of sports we are into and how do we motivate ourselves to get fit. Here’s what the gals had to say. Give us your thoughts in the comments. What motivates you to get fit or get in shape?

The idea of the Alternative Debs is that it’s the debs YOU always wanted, not what your school said you could have-as in with the Alternative Debs you can wear whatever you want and bring whoever you want… So, I wore a suit and brought a girl, which was a huge change from my own debs when I had to wear and dress and bring a guy.

Order less than you think you’ll eat. The portions are huge; as in obese American huge. With this thought firmly tucked into the brain off I popped to Temple Bar. The menu is vast, with all sorts of Tex-Mex food with some good veggie options. One word of warning, if you don’t like cheese avoid this place. Melted cheese is running over the edges of pretty much everything on the menu.

Friday 16th April, 7pm:
Please note a big change in our film and venue! We are now hosting the fundraiser in Film Base in Temple Bar (opposite the Button Factory) and, as a result, have dropped the ticket price to €20. This will still include 2 glasses of wine, snacks and [...]
