Also relevant to the “on this day” thread. Trish Keenan gone 10 years today.

Jinx Lennon is totally underappreciated (including by me I’ve never seen him live). He’s a bit of a genius.

First saw him live over twenty years ago. Have tended to enjoy him live more than on record. Spot him round the town a bit. Would have met him a bit at Limerick shows over the years (even sold merch for him once or twice). A nice guy. Pretty quiet.

Best song of the past year, this is class

This was blaring out in a restaurant in Westport yesterday, it must be close to 20 years since I heard it. I remember Sky Sports used it back in the day. A forgotten classic.
