Thread Name: Songs of Irish Interest from Dan Milner on MySpace
Subject: RE: Songs of Irish Interest from Dan Milner on MySpace
Yeah, Barry, Bold McCarthy definitely deserves more attention. Dan sang it while we were sitting around swapping lies and songs, and I immediately made a mental note to codge that one. Great song. The only trouble with getting songs from Milner is that you know you will always be a poor second in interpretation. I absolutely love that man's voice, even if he is a lousy fisherman....Mick ducks below the table to avoid flying objects..... But that song is going in the repertoire post haste.

Dan, perhaps if I hadn't left 4 dozen of Michigan's very finest nightcrawlers sitting on the kitchen table with my fishing rods (an error for which I paid dearly for once the formidable and dangerous MaryLou realized what they were) before I left for Connecticut, those piscatorial layabouts that pass for bass in the Eastern precincts could have been coaxed to the hook. Next time. I think we need to plan a camping/singing/fishing trip to that lovely land to the North of us. Maybe we could get Finn to leave the comforts of home?

Chit chat aside, I am very anxious for the new CD. Is it available yet?

All the best,

Mick
