  • I really enjoyed this. I'm a big fan of Alasdair Roberts and this really captured the friendly charm of his music and the others. I'm also going to Ireland for the first time in about a week (I'm from the US), and if the country is anything like what you've shown, I think I'll be very pleased.

  • Indeed it is, Galway, Kerry and west Cork shine bright with charm compared to the east of Ireland, no matter what they tell you it has little original charm left. (Dublin is is a cultural brew of english and american values. A very confused city)

  • Loved the video! Can't believe they left you out of their game of Scrabble!

  • Ha, Yorkston is hilarious. What/who is the very last song on this?

    Ps, really, really love this.

  • A beauty and the music is equally lovely too.

    Shame I couldn't catch any of these show.

  • Thanks very much for uploading this -- nice work!

    to ksgibson, I noticed two Alasdair Roberts songs in the film: the first is Under No Enchantment (But my own) from last year's Spoils album; the one at the end is the traditional Two Sisters a.k.a. Bonnie Mill Dams o'Binnorie, which I believe Alasdair has recorded for his forthcoming album, Too Long in this Condition.

  • I really enjoyed this. Wish you would tour England like this and bring some Athletes along too. The music biz is well tough these days. What was the Alasdair Roberts song btw?

  • I was just going to say I cant believe this film hasnt got thousands of hits, before I realised it's only been up a month. Massive stuff~!

  • Really nice watch. Thanks!

  • This is quite beautiful
