How have I managed to be on this website for the better part of a year and miss out on Conrad? Judging from the posts, his big thing in life is the classes of people he doesn't like.

I've dropped off a couple of sites becaue of people like him who not only posted regularly, but seemed to be supported by the listowners. Fortunately, Mudcatters (again judging from the posts) are made of sterner stuff and have little use for this kind of crap and for those who dish it.

I like to think of folksongs as bringing disparate people together. I can't think of a song right now that Conrad and I would sing ensemble.

Well, folks, if you see no problem hosting Conrad's brand of racist bigotry, seems a bit hypocritical to complain about hosting white supremecist, or anti-semitic, or right-wing religious, or any other disgusting muck someone wants to post.

The internet- like the world- can be a dangerous place & those who turn children loose on it without guidance or supervision are simply irresponsible.

Good man. If the Irish Traditional Music Archive is happy to keep collections of Orange songs (written and on record) within its stock - why should we get over-excited?

Conrad

The songs are in fact relatively easily obtainable - links have been provided here before.

Wow, Spaw, Conrad won't sleep tonight, with all that hell you've given him. And how old are you now?

Sinsull/Mary,I hadn't followed up those links, and don't suppose I will. But I take your point about monitoring. Seems a pity that it has to be so, but you can't do much about guests. Can't do much about Spaw for that matter.

I did go to the site Conrad gave. I read some of the text pages, and listened through all the songs and music. Can't say I took offence at anything there, though I happen to be at odds with the loyal orders on just about everything. The tone in which they explain their hostility to ecumenicalism is a bit disheartening, but I don't think you could say they are worse than the Holy Father in that respect. Let's hope it doesn't take Martin McGuinness too long to get rid of religiously segregated schooling in the north.

Annraoi, if there were a few more around with your generosity of spirit, the world would be a better place.

Ha! what a bunch of paranoid loonies!

good to see you rollin in your own filth!

Actually the only reason I posted the link was to inform those interested. There are songs not otherwise available there and a page I just found yesterday. Actually the entire series of pages is as someone has noted quite informative.

But if it flushed a few biggoted idjiots out of the woodwork for all to know who they are then so much the better! Clickit here

I have a wonderful children's book here called "Life Ain't No Yuk For A Yak". Would a few verses help?

Jon,
I try. I really do.

In the meantime, even though I know they were probably posted as sarcasm, I hope that someone will delete Guest, Michael's links. we really do NOT need those on the Mudcat, no matter the intention.

Thanks,

Hi Jon.....I wasn't rising to the bait. I just honestly enjoy giving him hell as much as he enjoys the trolling.

However, I do find his type of bigotry to be the most insidious and damaging, cloaked in a veil of rationality. We are seeing so much of that today in this world. It makes dealing with the serious issues of human interaction so much harder. No, I just love to have Conrad stop in for a "shot" every now and again. It doesn't anger me at all. Perhaps its therapeutic. He's a jerk...a troll...a bigot of the worst type......everyone knows it. I am glad to see that no one here will engage him in serious discussion anymore. That's a great leap forward for the 'Cat. Maybe we should take turns.

And Doug......I really am sorry about your Yak. I got troubles of my own though. The National Lead Congress just called me and are sending me a subpoena to appear and show cause as to why I have defamed a useful metal.

You can say what you like about Conrad, but you can't deny his right to post links to his songs, some of which are extremely singable. Let's not forget, folks, these songs are as much a part of the living Irish Tradition as "Kells Water" or "Amhrán Phádraig Shéamais." You may not agree with the sentiments expressed in them, but, then you don't have to listen. And as for those of you who find the very appearance of Conrad's name unbearably provocative, why don't you just ignore him ?
There's more offensive and dangerous material on the Net. Annraoi

I don't know why people keep rising to the bait. Conrad has been known in many forums for a long while and for the same reasons. Here is a quote from part of a thread from r.m.c dated 30/05/99:

"Trish: ignore the insane ravings of Conrad Bladey and, for God's sake, don't reply. All that asshole wants is to stir up a fight. Everyone who regularly reads any Irish/Celtic newsgroups knows who (and what) he is."

Perhaps some of us could do with heeding this advice.

Fionn,
Why no request to Guest Michael to restrain himself from posting the above links. Like it or not, the children you send to this site have heard "fuck", "shit" and a lot worse than Spaw comes up with. The White Supremacy sites linked above are just logical enough to be a real danger to adolescents who are insecure to begin with. Conrad's link is legitimately placed here as a source for music and lyrics. Do you think anyone going there is apt to find the music without being exposed to the bigotry? This is not a defense of Spaw. It's a "Heads Up" to you. Maybe you do need to monitor.

First, though it may be vulgar to some, I don't consider it that way, but I am generally a bit more restrained....sometimes.

I admit to bigotry and racism......Is it possible to be devoid of them? On the other hand, if you are concerned about them, try not to allow them anywhere near a posting from Conrad, the proud owner and operator of the most insidious form of bigotry imaginable.

A Loyal Orange Institution of England? They've managed to give that a fairly low profile. And I'm a bit perplexed to see there are Loyal Orange Lodges for Women...in the Irish Republic, even. Still, they've got some good songs, these buggers, and there's some interesting history in these links, so I guess I'd better say thanks for the reference, Conrad.

Spaw, I wonder if you could be just a bit more restrained with your language in this forum? I've encouraged kids of various ages to hunt around the Mudcat without feeling the need to look over their shoulders. I guess they're mature enough not to dwell on the filth, but they're going to get plenty chances to learn about hatred and bigotry without the Mudcat giving them lessons.

Wow, when I saw that all-caps title, and theword 'orange,' I just KNEW it was my old pal, Conrad. Looks like Spaw said it all for me, so, oh well...

And Spaw, the way you wrote to Conrad was totally racist. It reminds me of the way African American slaveswere treated, and Martin Luther King jr, too. And other black people. ANY black person, take your pick. And show Conny some respect! ;)

Conrad will just have to be satisfied with having a hot lead enema while trapped in a room with Sinead O'Connor. Not a bad second choice on his part.

Oh Sins I'm not into management here, just adding my wishes for Conrad's personal dream fulfillment. I hate to see a man whose reach does not exceed his grasp, and poor Conrad can't grab his ass with even one hand. Maybe if we all send him encouraging messages such as I did, he'll be able to get the yak and the wombat properly situated.

Hey Spaw,
I have been to Tibet and had the opportunity to deal with yaks first hand. I have also been to Australia and had the extreme honor of scratching a wombat on the head (Just before he made a grab for my wrist). That was the same day I was attacked by a kangaroo - but I wander. My point is to show a little respect for god's creatures. The first rule of management is NEVER to direct someone to do something you would do yourself or had not already done. Give Karen a hug and add something to your instrument link. It will distract you.

Geeziz Conrad, what is your fucking problem? I do so love these posts of yours. An asshole by any other name still smells of shit...........

Just the other day I was thinking that we were due for another piece of bombastic bullshit from you and its so nice to be right. Did your mother have any children that lived? Its obvious that the best part of you ran down her ass and wound up as the brown spot on the mattress.

flaming and trolling.........You do it so wonderfully. All under the guise of scholarly concern and research. It makes it such fun for you doesn't it? Lofty replies on your part.....Non-Partisan babblings that fool no one, but give you the "moral high ground" to those who don't know of you. Its so nice for you...............

Well Dickhead, I'm not mad....just weary of your tripe and nonsense. Fuck off. Eat shit. May all your dreams come true when you find yourself being butt-fucked by a yak while a wombat munches on your tiny balls.

Kiss my ass and have a nice day.
