Bakersfield band The Filthies in Ireland: Part One - By N.L. Belardes

Look at the size of this Irish bathroom stall!

When I got a call from Kenny "Motor" Mount yesterday from The Filthies, I swore he was fibbin' and had just taken the band on a tour of Sacramento.

He mentioned all the hot ladies, the great people, the hot ladies, and the great people. And then he talked about castles and hot Irish ladies.

And of course I was thinking: Sacramento bars.

But then I received these cool photos and a nice write-up from Kenny:

Hey Nick!! Dropping a line here. Were having a really good tour through Ireland. The only thing that sucks is you didn't come with us! So far we've driven around the country, played two shows and were gearing up to play Galway tonight.

Dublin was awsome, we played with Dublin David. His bands are called Seldon Crisis and another group called the Knievels from Dublin.....we had a blast. The second show was at The Bowery bar in Waterford. The people are so fun! It's like playing back home in Bakersfield.

We're making a ton of friends and networking for the group. We've met people from all over the world. There are going to be a lot of Filthies stickers all over these toilets when were done with it! This country is starved for anything rock or Punk. Most the bands that tour through are Euro or local and they all do that Coldplay lounge style, so they're lovin' the loud guitars... I'll send another email in a couple days..sent a couple pics too.....Kenny

Hey, where's all the talk of hot ladies?? Damn it...






I guess these are the only Irish women I'm going to get pics of. Oh wait, those are the Filthies! Silly me...
