I do not like beer and definitely not whiskey—nor black T-shirts or Chuck Taylors.
Nope, I wouldn't be caught dead in a pub at 4am!
Much less singing karaoke and trying to look
like Elvis Costello for chrissakes!

In Germany they kill people for spreading bad news :-) I know at least half a dozen of people who would come to a Hamburg gig. Having said so, we also say "the best things come to those who wait"! Hope the work on the new CD is going well?
The Craic Festival 2009 has invited FairplayCollective to play at this years Festival. All members will be playing in the round. The show is at The Mercury Lounge, March 14th at 8pm. This is the last night of the festival and Foy Vance is also on the bill.
What more can I say, a great night for music and film, with the odd star thrown in. Come show your support.
Happy New Year !
"Not a Political Song" video clip - Goodbye to George Bush - is now up on my page. Please come by, say hello and if you like, share with friends.
