Thread Name: Lyr Add: Dear Old Skibbereen
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: Dear Old Skibbereen
I used to play music regularly in Annie May's pub in Skibbereen in the 90s. I was bit fed up with it anyway and one week they were all watching Pink Floyd at the Berlin Wall & wouldnt turn it off till about 11pm, but I put up with it, as I was well paid and got free Guinness. Next time, the management had left a deputy in charge and said I'd be paid but no free stout. That was a steo too far and I told them to .. off & left them without any music. On the way back to base in Dunbeacon, the late Alex McKie burst into song...

'And thats another reason why I left old Skibbereen'
