You know what music I mean when I compare them to an O'Neils pub, though!

Pogues are genius, if you don't understand that you're a fool.
Texas = Scotland wins.

Paolo Nutini's parents have a nice chipshop from where I often partake of a late-night post-pub snack.

Speedway(i think they were called that) were shite.
Harry was abysmal. She covered some 80s song. It was used in an advert. Her label spent a fortune trying to promote her to the Kerrang crowd. They failed :)

I'm going to make a risky assertion that Snow Patrol is the responsibility of both Ireland and Scotland. Bastard offspring of the two. Other than that does Scotland have nice sectarian hatred bands? Like The Wolfe Tones? Does Scotland have hit songs about claiming Rockall as a matter of national pride?
Also.. Joe Dolan and the beloved Showbands.

And noone has even mentioned Runrig yet. But they geta free pass for "Dance Call America" which is ace. (i know all their late 80s/early 90s stuff as my dad liked them for a spell)Actually that live album wasn't that bad to be honest.
x-post Certain people I went to school with only wore celtic jersies.
That was my school(s) too. except the teachers banned celtic colours(rangers too but there was about 2 rangers supporters that i knew of)

I only said it to get a response. I posted my Pogues diss as a means of expressing my displeasure at my initial (well, initial recent) Pogues experience, and knew that I'd get a right load of people suggesting new and enhanced ways of 'getting' them. Please, don't take it personally. The fact that I chose this thread was purely due to the coincidental fact that I found it now, just after that experience. I do not and never will mean to propose that the Pogues are amongst the worst groups from Ireland.

maybe Roy sold his soul to the devil, and had to include Ronnie Browne in the package deal hehehe. Haircut Ronnie certainly looks like he should just be in a Asterix and Obelix in Scotland in 3D adaptation
thanks for that vid!
