Against Wav's assertions that Irish and Scottish musician tend to perform mostly their own music, here are some names he might find interesting.

Rory Gallagher, Phil Lynnot, Gary Moore, Van Morrison, Boomtown Rats, Stiff Fingers, U2, Sinead O'Connor, need I go on?

Wasn't Dublin called the city of 1000 bands?

Anyone care to bring up the dire topic of showbands?
