33 cds of Horslips material incoming. Probably a tad on the excessive side.

The breakdown of those 33 CDs here:
13 of them are just the original albums remastered so the good news is you have a headstart on those.
I personally think it’s a bag of shite.

sing Grace ye cunts
Butterfly by The Pale should be in there, as should more than one 4 of us song, in the long grass by the Galway crusty band (the little fish) before the deluge of course, at least three McGowan songs, a missing link song, Charlton Heston by stump,
Arclight maybe.
Heads are gonna roll is the best stunning song.
Stockton’s wing should have two in there.
Paul Brady is a miserable cunt.
The end.

Considering it was a public vote I don’t think that list is too bad.
The Asians are stone mad for Zombie
I assume RTE didn’t put Celtic Symphony on the ballot?
I’m surprised the theme to Titanic didn’t make it. Or Riverdance. Or boyzone.
