    Rory Gallagher and Gary Moore are imo the 2 greatest guitarists I have ever seen or heard.

    Phil Lynott will always be my favorite Irish musician. I went to Irish Rock Museum in Dublin a year ago. It was great to see all the love for Phil & Thin Lizzy.

    Do a video on Frank And The Walters!! From Cork!! That's one of the only Republic bands I know.... The rest are from Belfast: Stiff Little Fingers, and the bands like Therapy? and Ash in the 90s.
    You could do a clip on the alternative bands....

    We’re the land of Saints and Scholars, probably more people here have this higher level of natural ability than any other country.
    I grew up listening to Irish rock, Thin Lizzy were a personal favourite, I’m nearly into my 50s and still listening.
    My mum would play a lot of Rory Gallagher when I was little, what 7 year old boy DOESN’T want to play and be like Rory?
    Sadly our best died young including poor Sinead. Just listening to “She Moved Through The Fair”. Sinead’s version…,

    The traveller community have apparently imported so much Irish music into prison in England that whenever I play my albums, someone usually asks me if I'm a traveller, and when I tell them I'm not, they tell me why they ask.
