Strictly Handbag – Celebrating 25 Years

Martin Thomas was patched into the fabric of the city. A promoter, chancer and bon vivant; Thomas was a man never short of an idea or opinion. He was one of us. The Drogheda native flipped venues into bewitching club spectacles and Strictly Handbag was probably the best known of these. If you’re of a certain vintage you’ll remember its flyers which came in the shape of a handbag you could assemble. The Monday nightclub in Rí Rá (yes we had Monday nightclubs back then) was a mainstay for the service industry who know how to party like no other. Thomas sadly left the scene earlier this year after a battle with cancer. This fundraiser for his family is also a cause for nostalgia and celebration. Dave Haslam, Dandeloin and many other stalwarts from that era are on the decks.
