Subject: RE: About Irish Rebel Songs From: Freddie Fox Date: 28 Oct 99 - 06:35 PM Well, I don't know what happened there ie. above message or lack of it. You have to be a bit careful around here [Leeds, England]; we've played a few venues which have a notice in the Green Room - No Rebel Songs - especially in areas with a high Irish population. If in doubt, ask the person in charge of the venue. Having said that, you can get away with virtually anything on Paddy's Night - weird, isn't it? |

Subject: About Irish Rebel Songs From: Clifton53 Date: 28 Oct 99 - 06:30 PM Can anyone tell me if it is always proper to fill the hall with "Come Out Ye Black and Tans"? Is it viewed as somewhat tasteless to play these type of songs indiscriminately? When and where should they be/not be performed? Most of them glorify the many battles and insurrections of Irish history. Is the current peace initiative a good reason not to play them? As an American-Irish performer, would people object to hearing them from me for any reason?? I need some insight here. |
