The Heineken Rollercoaster Tour was a local tour, headlined by Whipping Boy. It was a four act show. Leading out most nights was The BedHangers (from Co. Antrim). Next up was Big Bag of Sticks, who were introduced as a mixture of Irish folk, rock and techno (?), followed by Revelino, an up and coming band from Dublin (with a great new single out right now - I Know What You Want). Then Whipping Boy, who were more than worth the, usually quite long, wait (the Empire, Belfast gig didn't end until after 1.00am). At the final show at the Furnace in Dublin, Whipping Boy's set was recorded, and six of the songs have been released as b-sides for the recently released Twinkle single.
