i realise that the comment was made two years ago and i have only giscovered this upload now but i have to respond to northolt and his claim that "like most irishmen etc" you're simply generalising and you have no right to do so, i's your personal opinion nothing else, the DUBS weren't even national they were INTERNATIONALISTS!

Recently I learned that Luke Kelly died many years ago and then that Ronnie Drew had also died. Too much in any one day! Ronnie and Luke were the essence of what it means to be Irish......what a great loss.

[Factnotfictionpeople]

Doesn't look like to me...............

[matskigudjohnson]

Lord have mercy on him. He embodied the word legend.

Have to say I thought the tribute tune was...lacking something ,to be fair.

[praskovia13]

Amen to that matski

[opaldove]

RIP Ronnie, you were unique and I loved to hear you sing. It was a JOY!!

[mugmugmug11]

so young.

I dispute your contention about Irish 'men' born outside the 'pale' - presumably meaning outside present day Dublin and Greater Dublin. If this were true it would be a dreadful accusation of prejudice to level on a high proportion of the Irish population. Happily it is simply not so.

Roonie Drew is a sad loss to all Irish people - Dubliners, Corkonians Belfast folk, black and white.
