St. Patrick’s Day
Try not to puke in front of children.

Map and Yola song found here. Northern Ireland hadn’t been invented yet.
Dervish is awesome.
What’s St. Patrick’s Day without a tribute to the Pogues? Contrary to popular belief, frontman Shane MacGowan is not dead.
I jumped the 3rd vid to one of my favorites, Young Ned Of The Hill [full concert starts here]. It’s a traditional Irish song about one Éamonn an Chnoic. Legend says he became an outlaw after shooting a tax collector dead during a quarrel over the confiscation of a poor woman’s cow.
Have a great weekend, folks. See you back here soon.
