Punk Rock Factory / Wolves of Glendale / Ailsha – The Academy Greenroom, Dublin 05.10.2024

Four idiots making DIY Punk Rock Covers (Their words not mine 😉 ) also known as Punk Rock Factory kicked of their tour starting in Belfast and then moving on down south for a night at The Academy Greenroom for the second night on Irish shores.
Before things even got started the room was pretty packed and by the time the guys hit the stage it was rammed.

Looking at the setlist you would think am I at a kids party or what, but man this works, the show is funny and its just high energy pop punk from start to finish and do this guys get a party atmosphere going or what!.
Once the guys kicked of so did the crowd with sing alongs to some of the 90s classic cartoon themes and more. I was sceptical at first but not anymore!
These guys rock!

Opening acts on the night were Gaeilgoth Ailsha bringing her blend of alternative metal in a blaze of pink, followed by comedy band made up of Ethan Edenburg, Eric Jackowitz, & Tom McGovern who go by the name of Wolves of Glendale.
