Right now it’s the young men who are the Irish players are meeting to discuss what they are going to do. I for one don’t envy them.

That looks like an old Pedigree pram. They were expensive items and often passed down and around in families.

1977 playing support to The Stranglers in the Top Hat Ballroom in Dun Laoghaire, Dublin. They were less than enthusiastically received by the largely local audience.

This is a great song by Ry Cooder and is as relevant today as it was when he first wrote it. There is also a lovely version by Willy de Ville that’s well worth checking out 👏

There is a word in the Irish idiom to describe an individual who carries out this type of vandalism. The word of course is “Langer” 🤬🤬🤬

A band from Limerick. I saw them playing in the Royal Theatre in Limerick back in the 90’s. In fairness they were very good on the night, playing in front of their home audience.

When I was a boy the lads coming up from the local pub on a Saturday night always sang Beatles songs. In fairness some of them were pretty well able to carry a song as well.

A completely different sound than the popular music of the the charts in 1969. I discovered The Stooges in 77/78 and at that stage it was very similar to the music I was listening to then.
