Nestled between Inishowen's rugged mammaries, Carndonagh lies inconspiciously on the plains of the peninsula. Popular belief suggests that the town's name originates from 'Carn' meaning Rock, and 'Domhnach' meaning Sunday. However, this is a myth peddled by the clergy, who to this day guard the true origins with disproportionate ferocity.

  • Nestled between Inishowen's rugged mammaries, Carndonagh lies inconspiciously on the plains of the peninsula. Popular belief suggests that the town's name originates from 'Carn' meaning Rock, and 'Domhnach' meaning Sunday. However, this is a myth peddled by the clergy, who to this day guard the true origins with disproportionate ferocity. While it is true that Carndonagh literally means Sunday Rock, in truth it pertains to a music festival organized by Patrick St. Funk. The party is said to have lasted six days, with the revellers resting on the seventh. Amoung the headliners at the concert were, St. Bridget and the Banshees, Big Willie and the Hand Shandies, and Mickey Joe Van Halen. The latter being a distant ancestor of Eddie, whose rider included such outrageous demands as, there were to be no black faced horned ewe lambs in his after-show 'pleasure flock'. Not only is it such hedonistic shennanigans that the church object to, but also the vast amount of drugs available in the Churchland Quarters area of the town at the time.
