senseless bodhran player who doesn't knowanybetter About Irish Rebel Songs (53* d) RE: About Irish Rebel Songs 05 Nov 99


Is it appropriate to export grain out of a starving country during a famine? Or to deliberately try to wipe out another country"s native tongue? You can hardly even touch Ireland's heritage without mentioning the neighbors. Even "The Boys of Barr na Sraide" which can hardly be considered inflammatory, mentions the Saxon stanger, the rebel homes of Kerry, and the Black and Tans. Finally,why doesn't anybody ask if it's appropriate to sing Danny Boy or the Unicorn 600 times over St. Paddy's Day weekend?

Slan Agat, Rich
