1984! your mother & me went 2 see them at Farnham Hall but Luke kelly had passed on a week earlier. 😢 but they still played their ❤ out✌️❤️ to my beautiful Boy's pads Rory & Louis XX
Thank you for sharing this with an international Internet audience! :-) Me (1956, the Netherlands), I was exposed to the Dubliners ("Live at the Albert Hall", my memory suggests) by a school friend around 1974. He enjoyed the drinking side of the music. So did I, but I was a lover of traditional music (from all over the world) already. I expanded my love for Irish music by those replacements in the Dubliners like Jim McCann and by buying sheet music of the Clancy Brothers & Tommy Makem and records. I must confess that my preference (within Irish music, that is) gradually changed from the drinking songs and yet another betrayal to the music by the Chieftains. I remember a concert by the Dubliners in Carré, a top theatre in Amsterdam and in the Netherlands at all. I had a good seat (earned by hanging up posters for the tour), next to the aisle. Next to me sat a guy who had a bottle of whiskey in his jacket. He'd howl through the performance (even solos by Barney), often punched in the side by me from the right and by a friend from the left. During the intermission, beer was bought by the crate. My neighbour slept through the second half of the concert. I guess that the Dutch aren't unique in joining the Irish in the Netherlands in their St. Patrick's Day celebrations. Most of us even swap their beer preference for one night. And yes, then it's the Dubliners songbook to start with. (My experience needs updating.)
Ditto. Am spending my Christmas and New Year, listening to all all the passing of these legends that mate, my heart and soul be never forgotten God bless all that have gone from this earth, amen and forever. Hold your peace, God God bless.
My father's first cousins father, died in 1973. He lived in dunkellin in co Galway, when the dubliners were doing a gig in kilcolgan, Co Galway, after the gig, the dubliners stayed in his house for the night, they slept on the floor. They had alot of drink, but he let them stay the night
The craic was good in Cricklewood. We wouldn’t leave the crown ,there was glasses flying, biddys crying Paddy was going to town. Oh mother dear I’m over here, and I never go back whats keeps me Here is the rake of the beer, the ladies and the craic.
I'm still truly sad that he's gone, and I still remember an interview he did with a Norwegian journalist; when Ronnie explained why he now only ordered coffee, as he had a theory that any human being only had so much capacity for a total consumption of alcohol, and he'd reached his limit long before that day! Thank you for all of it, and rest peacefully!
Before the Dubliners, Irish songs were proper and staid and polite. The you had five hard drinking lads that all sounded like they jammed in living rooms and slept in dustbins, but I now understand how influential Ronnie Drew was on rockers and on Shane MacGowan in particular.
oh yes ..from an englishm,an this guy is a GOD no doubt or anything to saY N!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS MAN ,HIS VIEWS AND HIS VOICE ..............................HE WAS GTHE MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!LOVED AND NEVER FORGOT ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,along with luke and the pogues and ireland asa whole ,,,,,,,,,GRTEAT PEACE ,,,,GREAT STUFF ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,fightin stuff cos it was RIGHT............................................ROLL ON 7 DRUNKEN NIGHTS ! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...........................IM EN GLISH////SWEDISZH//DANISH AND IO KNOW HIM WELL ,,,,BLESZS YA RONNIE
In my ideal world I'd never have to hear Bonno ever again. I love Ronnnie Drews stuff, but Bonno doing a tribune to him.....NO. Shouldve got Mr Macgoawan.
I don't understand why his opinion is always asked. As if he is some kind of standard. And of course he has a picture of the band signed to him in his bathroom! That's very important!
@@josephcampbell2478 INTERVIEWER asks; "Do people ever tell you you drink too much?" SHANE: "Yeah, yeah they do". INTERVIEWER: "What do you say to them?". SHANE (after a pause for thought): "I tell them to fu@k off". I totally agree with you mate!
I’m inclined to suspect that all of ye’s are actual Irish, so this particular shanty Mick from Detroit will refrain from wading into this particular puddle………despite having an actual opinion on the things about which ye’s speak…..☘️🎶🤡😎🙏……..But I’ll simply add that despite knowing exactly what Rhonnie was referring to when he poured a pint out onto the floor or onto a plant or whatever it was when asked about a certain band that may have been trading on, taking advantage of, the “troubles”, I still love the Wolfe Tones and the beautiful music that they made. In the mid 1970’s, my brothers and I fell asleep each night listening to The Clancy Bros & Tommy Makem, the Dubliners, the Wolfe Tones(& Bill Cosby- we had no idea then his true “background story😱🙈😎), so those powerful childhood memories are permanently inscribed on my heart & soul….🙏☘️🎭🎶
48:09 Actually Gerry it was the 16th of August 2008 I remember being in Croke Park the day he passed away and after Dubs were hammered by Tyrone on a very wet Saturday afternoon they Played Parting Glass on Loudspeaker straight after the match
My father housed him for 6 months on his couch in Dublin and got him his first gig on the late late. My father always stated he was an utter waster until he made a name for himself.
Why make a comment like that,we only have ur opinion that Ronnie was 'an utter waster' , ur father is not here to confirm it, Nasty comment, no need for it
That interviewer is incredibly annoying, he asks Ronny a question, then doesn't let him think about the answer, fishes around with his own answers and when Ronnie finally repeats what the guy insists on is the answer he goes "Right!". Go write your memoirs man if you want it all to be about you! That's not how you interview people. It's a shame because it's a wasted oportunity to have a recording of Ronnie's own opinions, views and experiences. Now they are intermixed with the interviewer's own preconceptions of him and the band, he has missed the point of making an interview. Maybe he is star struck and feels that doing that will make Ronnie like and appreciate him personally for being so engaged, but it only makes him look like a fool. And he does it all-the-time!
RIP Ronnie Drew. Thank you for the music. 💚🎶❤️💔🙏
The voice and the wonderful blue irish eyes will neuer be forgotten. i am 76 years old and german and i still miss ron and the dubliners.
we all love ronnie
May god bless you Ronnie Drew and thank you for the years of music.

Imagine having Ronnie Drew AND Luke Kelly in a band, two of the most original voices EVER...oh ya...they did! F"$k!
Right ya are! Nice tribute Ronnie was one of the most famous Irish music artist in his time especially European Union countries. Slante`
Brilliant, could listen to this band forever.❤

2:02 Bono calling himself out, probably without even realizing it LOL
Side note: I fucking love Shane MacGowan.

THE WORSE MISTAKE EVER BONO WAS BORN WITH A TONGUE 😝
"Memory is the only friend that grief can call its own!"..Sean O' Casey.
Ronnie's interviewer interupting him here and there pissed Ronnie off i reckon.

ABSOLUTELY! I'm sick of Bono's preaching. Shane is imperfect but honest.
Shane's a punk couldn't be bought

Asking the bagsofshit Bono+Bert to comment was a great way to introduce the SUBJECT
An excellent interviewer.
I heard once that his voice was like someone gargling a crushed Coke bottle. 🤣🤣🤣

Thanks so much Ronnie god bless you and rest in peace
How would it be to open yer gob and this wonderful noise comes out, god less you all
The singing chain saw.
What performance was that weila waila 17:31
Is there anyway to get a better sound quality clip of this documentary
The interviewer could have been better, there was something missing, he looked as if he wasn't talking Ronnie seriously.
Vale Ronnie
The balls Ryan had.
💚🤍🧡
Sad . B
Neither Bono or Bertie would know anything about Ronnie
Ooohkay?!?
Makes me cry salty tears.
Adamic man.
