"Is that yourself that's in it?" is a Dublin greeting that goes back to the late 19th century. It is still used in Dublin to this day by old people in the inner city ...
I had no chorus to my song (which i do in this clip). I had based the rest of the words of the song on a newspaper story i was reading on a man who killed a debt collector (moneyman). But i had no Chorus ... then i heard one old lady say "Is that yourself that's in it?"! to another old lady ... and there was my chorus ...
Playing in Cologne was the first time i had played in Germany since 1984/5 with the "Wild Geese".
It was a magnificent night!
Mick Fitzgerald
Nice to see you on here, Mick! Still in great voice! I hope life is treating you well! I remember the tour in 1984/5 well! Remember Finnegan, the Irish Wolfhound? Well, I have three now! Best wishes xxx

There is sort of an optical illusion here. If you can keep your eyes off the beautiful brunette in the middle, you can see Mick Fitzgerald singing a song.
