Arrrgh - I fell for it again!

I really, really wish people wouldn't use the "Review" category heading unless they actually had a review to post.

Were you at those gigs, Oldtimer? Why don't you tell us about them?

Well, what a cranky & arrogant response.There is a totally unwarranted & uninvited smell of hostility in you ear hole Mici..I asked a truly sincere question in genuine curiosity & did not expect to be visited by such a purile & contemptuous reply.You then have the gross ignorance to ask me two stupid questions & at the same time, prempt my reponse by, you then supplying a prejudiced & invalid answer.There must be some kind of aerosol spray available that might calm you down a tad.The answer to your first question is --no , not yet --& from that, I quess you can figure out the reply to your next query . May the Great Lord & Sacred Buddha protect us from such pestillence .

Jeez, off your meds again? I merely suggested - not for the first time - that the "Review" heading should be used for, well, reviews, not for general queries. (Speaking of gross ignorance.) Makes sense to me.

Sweeney's Men

Four weeks ago (without telling me, the blighter...) Andy Irvine held a secret reunion of the 1968 line-up of Sweeney's Men - with Terry Woods and Johnny Moynihan - at a bar in Draperstown.

That lineup had played at Andy's 70th birthday gig in Vicar's street earlier this year. Johnny lives in Kinvara in the West of Ireland (as do I) and is still very active musically - and otherwise!

Regards
