One of the ten most beautiful songs I've ever heard (I just decided that this week) and apparently it has slipped through the cracks.

anything in this vein as good as the pogues? seems like there should be a lot of whiskey-soaked, punkish troubadours of miserable brilliance from the emerald isle.

i went to ireland for a bit last year -- a fairly remote area in county kerry. one day i was doing some work at the pub and my phone died. i asked the bartender if she had one i could use and she said she did -- at home. she said she'd run home to get it if i watched the pub for her. (i politely declined, i didn't want her to be running around on my behalf.)
the point of the story is that ireland is a great country. i wish i lived there.

I've still got loads of cousins and uncles in Kerry. I hope one of them told you to fuck right off back to where you came from!

that street brawlin' bukowski-punk poet of the streets Shane Macgowan brings nothing but pride to the public school he attended and his posh as fuck family!

should check out these lads treesh. When I was forced to watch them as a child they were making jokes about drink-driving and some 18th century coleen presented them with a gift of geese eggs in a basket!

I think the drink driving joke might have been about him, it was something like: the road turned but he didn't, it was quite bad form of the road to play with someone 18 times over the limit like that.

Only 18, quiet night for Ronnie was it?

going to start a Celtic punk group but it's youth crew style straight edge hardcore punk and it's all about how drinking pints isn't grand and chugga-chugga breakdowns accompanied by bodhrán drums

I cannot reccomend this, if you are looking for things to avoid

I avoid Celtic Woman anything like the plague.
Sad thing is, some of it might be good, its just too much effort..
On an Irish tip, I dug out my old records to make a mix for my brother, especially digging Silly Wizard - "Queen of Argyll" is a total banger.
Also Altan if you ride a more progressive Gabriel-style wave.

Silly Wizard being Scottish but I play both.

Also Breton fest-noz music turned my head upside down, it can rock.
