I know friend. I miss 'em all. I really wanted to see someone in concert before they died and now it's too late. :( I was heart broken when Makem and Liam died.

What a great story teller Ronnie was in words and song.

i hear this tune i get shivers down my spine , i'm irish and love everything that is. do you realise the man that owns jacobs put hundreds of irish men and women on the dole, just so he could have more profit by sorce-ing once irish made biscuits to england , shame on you i say, how can an irish man take the food from irish mouths and justify it by saying its good business, he's a traitor to everything that our flag represents. remember jacobs 1916, there are many will never forget,but he did
