The story of that music video is a lovely one.

The bell table
Ah there’s too many to count.
They did for the 2nd one. Ash and Moby the main support acts. Nelly Furtado on the undercard.
Mad to think that the Chilli Peppers and Coldplay were support acts for the first gig too
Great days out I’d say. Chilli peppers Coldplay and moby all had massive albums out around then. I was abroad. So what’s the story with the Ash intro you just remember it from the day?
They showed 2nd half of Ireland vs Holland on the big screen during the break between first 3 acts and second 3 acts. McAteers goal and the win sent the crowd absolute ballistic. Nearly a better atmosphere than being at the game with 80k odd there.
Crowd absolutely buzzing on a balmy late August or early September day and then on come Ash and launch straight into Burn Baby Burn which would normally have been an encore song from memory. They probably played it 2-3 times. Just one of those moments you remember as being pure joy and madness. Don’t even think I’d had a drink at that stage of the day so it was pure adrenalin.

Lynott was a genius.

I’ve given that a like as it’s a fine song but I don’t think it would make my top 10 of Franks tunes, maybe too 20
