It looks better...but not by much. Nice to see RSS feeds popping up all over the place.

What is up with their logo in the banner and also the tonne of whitespace under the flash box in IE7?

I'm going to presume that the site isn't 100% finished yet.

lyric fm eh! crikey! There are so many irish sites which don't support no-www (whatever the term is, i know there is a fancy term other than class-b addressing)

luas.ie is one, meteor.ie doesn't support it either

They must have fixed that non-www thingy. I'm just getting rte as usual. Anyway, it's nicer than the last site I like it. Still a wee bit busy though.

Lot's happening on the home page but easy to find what you're looking for. Clicked on the shop, did they forget to update this section?
Can't find a t-shirt of Charlie Bird anywhere. Nuts!

i think it depends what browser you are using as to whether the no-www causes a problem..

Far too busy and very poor content layout and site architecture... so it's the same as it was before then! Better markup this time though and I think the design looks a lot better (but still not great). Nice to see RSS feeds up there as Rollo said.
