The 2003 Hot Press Yearbook saw its official launch last night at the party of the year

The Hot Press massive are nursing particularly nasty hangovers this morning following the launch of the 2003 Hot Press Yearbook last night (Tuesday 25th) in Dublin's Sugar Club.

Assisting in the revelries were Jerry Fish and the Mudbug Club, Think, Maria Doyle Kennedy, the D1 djs and special guests The Cranberries who performed a selection of new songs, as well as the classic, 'Linger' - their most intimate gig in years.

Artists Paddy Casey, Mary Stokes, Roesy, Mary Coughlan, Neosupervital, La Rocca and Perry Blake, who were seen rubbing shoulders with industry heads and promising talent, ensuring that once again the Hot Press Yearbook Launch invite is one of the most coveted in town.
