I have to give the bythebay and star credit, it takes a lot of energy to be so negative, sounds like they went through a bitter divorce.

@bythebay. who is in cleveland? Do you live in the bay? It's a a name. I live in the place that you want to speak for. You do not speak for me or anyone else in Ireland. Please do not assume. You make me sick with your lies.

If you are looking for rebel songs, stop in Bundoran. Many of the pubs have fine Irish ballad bands. But for the liveliest of all, try the Emerald Bar. "Flight of the Earls" play there along with other fine bands. Great musicians and a fun time. If "Flight" is there be sure to hear Crossmaglen and Farewell to Bellaghy.

bythebay, you've no back bone lad. A snake in the grass, wouldn't trust ya with an empty box you'd sell it for 30 pieces of plated fake silver. Any relation to Iscariot? the wolfetones are lousy but you're the most disgusting SOB on this website. Everyday, all the day, on here with your pessimistic mindset, tell me do your live near a grave so you don't have to go far when you kick it. Smile FFS

Sorry running out of steam, meant to say Boston, and wish I had been old enough for Woodstock.On F.B. Both the ballyknockan inn and our annual Hillbilly tractor festival have pages judge for yourselves. Don't be swayed by certain ignorant individuals.

Bytheway, first of all I am a she not he. Secondly I work for a tour co whose head office is in Denver and european operations in London owned by a Swiss family. It is not self-serving on my part other than to keep me in a job. I am more or else the trouble shooter here for our clients whilst in this country. And yes Ballyknockan is the granite village and while there might not be much in it its hospitality by the Ballknockan inn and cullens pub is second to none. Some of my teenage years were spent sliding around the mud at lisdoonvarna, more recently Oxyegen, which if I wished I could listen to in my backgarden but not the atmosphere. If I wish to promote my hometown to propective visitors that my right, nothing to do with my job, I live in Blessington in west wicklow which is poorly promoted compared to east Wicklow, but we have a strong community spirit. Brian O thank you I love my County and our side is beautiful, by the way my eldest daughter has lived in B

I like "Protect and Survive" by the Dubliners. It's funny.

Woodstock was held in a pasture in an obscure part of New york state, lots of people got stuck in the muck there,
You stay home and listen to your beatle records.

My cousin lives in Wicklow a beautiful place it is, your anti Irish, anti-American blather is out in front on your last post its nice to shine the light of day on your ilk. You have no idea of my part of the world, it is obvious you have never been here.

BrianO, in US terms, baloney. Millions millions was collected there for the IRA 30 years of terrorism murders and destruction. Of course they accomplished nothing, Northern Ireland is still part of the United Kingdom. I understand the Wolfe Tones are still spreading the bigotry and prejudice even into 2012 in Boston. It's well past time for all those vestiges of bigotry to stop. We've moved on in Ireland and have an excellent relationship with our nearest neighbors, Northern Ireland and Great Britain.
