In December 1994, Mick and Valerie moved into Dolan’s. It was then known as The Mill Tavern. They wanted a pub with Traditional Irish Music every night so that anyone who wanted to listen or play in a session could do so any night of the week all year round. The response from local musicians was fantastic and by Paddy’s Day 1995 the place was hopping. Although Neil and Sarah (the children) were still very young, they helped out by collecting glasses, emptying ashtrays (those were the days!) and Sarah sang the odd song. The acoustic sessions were (and still are) great and they decided to open a bigger venue to accommodate national and international acts thus the Warehouse was opened in 1998.
