When I started this thread I didn't make any comment on Ronnie…I just thought I'd sit back see what other people had to say. It seems to me whenever anyone starts a Corries, Dubliners or Clancys thread…the critics come out. Mostly because of their commercial success, which I didn't realize was a bad. I think everyone wants to be successful at their chosen occupation. I certainly understand people who don't like their music and never did, but beyond that I think it's a bit silly. Editorial over. On the subject of John Sheahan…leave to Seamus…here, here! I couldn't agree more. Your old pal, Nick Kelly…oh and all the best to Ronnie and his retirement.
