So lonely 'round the fields of Athenry

Obscure music....cool.

Obscure history....cool.

together, they're bad. so bad that it makes one want to put thier finger through thier eyeball into thier brain and swirl it all around abit.

in 1916, apparently, the eastern uprising of the IRA caused quite a stir when they captured the post office. of course no one noticed because they were all currently occupied by WW I. but alot of drunken irishmen died, and a lot more drunken irishmen wrote songs about it. now, i'm as interested in that as the next man, but having to learn 13 of these songs in the next two weeks is a little much. i mean, the irish have been fighting for thier freedom from britain for, what, 600 years? cut me a little slack!

granted, the IRA were terrorists before being a terrorist was cool, but playing a bar on st. patties day (your all invited) is a little worrying, once they get all liquored up.

just a thought.

have a nice day.
