Now that Trip to Tipp - or Féile Classical as it will be known - is making a comeback in September we asked for your memories of the original Féile from the nineties and here's a selection of your responses.
Gráinne aged 47 & three quarters from Dublin met her husband at Féile in 1991:
"Romance with my now husband started in 1991 at Féile 91, a day after my 21st. We had our first kiss on the Trip to Tipp. We were at Féile 90/91& 92, we got married in 1997, still married and in love in 2018! My husband was part of a group of friends at Féile 90. They were dancing in the stand between the bands' sets, getting the crowds going by dancing in unison. The crowds in the stands and on the pitch joined in and the the late great DJ Tony Fenton saw them from the stage and called them The Semple Four. Lots of great memories."
Trevor (45) from Wexford remembers mountains of greasy chips and empty beer cans:
"Trip to Tipp 1991. 3 day ticket cost £35. The Farm, Happy Mondays, Something Happens, and of course Transvision Vamp. Stayed in a camp site just down from the Anner Hotel and got breakfast in that hotel every morning. I will always remember Thurles square packed with people and the street was so slippy from greasy chips and the big mountain of empty beer cans outside the entrance to the stadium. Let's not forget the local houses selling sandwiches from their front door. I will never forget not brushing my teeth for 4 whole days. Never let that happen again. The memories of an 18 year old."
Micky (43) from Cushendun on the best waste of 30 punts:
"One of the boys with me was a huge Pogues fan so we got in early on Sunday so we could get front row to see them. We stood in the pit at the front of the stage all day and, due to some changes in the running order, The Pogues ended up headlining. Knowing full well that if we left the pit we weren't getting back in we give two young fellas doing first aid 30 punts to get us burgers and something to drink .They said they'd be right back... never saw them again! Eight hours of top class acts like The 4 Of Us, The Stunning etc rounded off with what I think was the Pogues' last ever Irish show with nothing to eat and only water from the bouncers to drink. What a day."
