    Just one dreary song after another tonight.

    No life, no excitement, no reflection on contemporary Irish Music.

    Poor show.


    All it's short of is U2 and a rake of Guinness

    It's President Michael Higgins - whether he's on an official state visit or not, it's about respect.

    As for his guitar, he has one or two extra holes in it that's all

    Its a guitar,its not what it looks like,its what it sound like.

    Maybe that's the idea?

    Something wrong with me as I'm quite enjoying it.

    No another guy in a ropey looking jacket, his hair is more grey than John's and he was a beard? Arm around Imelda and Lisa

    I don't think Michael D would have minded at all.

    I for one mind, he's my President too.

    It's not Bill Clinton Hansard is referring to.

    Did I see Henry Kelly there, or has Ryan Tubridy just let himself go?

    Ah you're joking, Costello is using the climax of the whole thing to plug his new material. Poor form.

    Apart from Elvis, you could be in a pub in New York on St. Patrick's day...

    Which is no bad thing but you'd have a lot of liquid refreshments onboard...

    I dunno, it's meant to be a celebration.

    I haven't heard one up tempo song. You need to mix it up, light and shade.

    Even the Marino Waltz can't save it now.
