Paddy's Day Links
If I was back in Ireland today I'd have the day off and probably be face down in a pool of my own [insert bodily fluid of choice here]. Well I'm not and Scotland doesn't seem to keen on this day off in honour of a sainted Welshman so instead I'm going to post a few Oirish links and repeatedly listen to the national anthem on my mp3 player.
- Official St. Patricks Day Festival Homepage
- St Pat googled
- Dropkick murphys do a great rendition of fields of athenry
- The Horslips - always good to get a session going
- Potato Recipies :)
- The Black Stuff
- Oirish movies: Finian's Rainbow, Darby O' Gill and the Little People, The Commitments ,Intermission , The Snapper
I'm getting teary eyed just thinking about 'em. Even though its pure americanised-oirish pap I've always liked Finians Rainbow. The Leprachaun who's growing taller is hilarious "DOOM AND GLOOM.....". Pub quiz fact - it's directed by Francis Ford Coppola.
