TaraWatch is calling for 300 volunteers to participate in a demonstration/video production, in protest of the M3 motorway works at the Hill of Tara. The demonstration will take place in the Garden of Remembrance, Parnell Square, Dublin, at noon on Tue Jan 8, which was the day the National Roads Authority was supposed to hand over possession of the National Monument at Lismullin to SIAC Construction, before it was done early just before Christmas. There are two different Tara songs that will be performed, either by the original artists, or on tape, for purposes of making a video. Laoise Kelly is asking Liam O Maonlai to perform Money Mad Mile. She will also be performing on the day, with others. Eamon Carr (of Horslips) is asking Richie Buckley to join him in performing their new unreleased original composition, with an number of other guest artists. Professional dancers will help coreograph some movements, with props such as 300 white crosses, so it should be an interesting demonstration, creating some powerful music and images. Participants should be available to attend a rehearsal on Sunday 6th of January at 4.00pm at the Garden. Please sign up, anonymously here
