Happy Saint Patrick's Day

Happy Saint Patrick's Day

Have a Guinness and a nip of Tullamore Dew!

Poteen if you have it.
Some music to sip it by after the jump


A republican song commemorating the uprising of 1798 by the Clancy Brothers.


McIllhaton by Christy Moore

The Foggy Dew by the Chieftains with Sinead O'Connor commemorating the 1916 Easter uprising.

The Wolftones sing The Men Behind the Wire about the 1970's internments.
That's just over two hundred years of the Irish struggle for independence. The history is much longer still. No surprise that Ted Kennedy said, the dream shall never die, his ancestors have centuries of tradition of just that.
