At a singing session in Clare last night, I sang "My Irish Molly" - the version whose tune was borrowed for "The Sash". As I finished, the fear a' tí (MC) remarked - "Can we start throwin' stones now?"! I replied - "Ah no - wait till the drummers get here." which in turn was followed by "Would a bodhrán player do?"!

Time to get a sense of perspective, Jim. It's also a bit disingenuous to quote Maginness without making it clear that he was talking of supporters of dissident IRA factions, rather than Loyalist marchers.
