Looks good i hope they know most people will be going for the music and christy moore the legend. But then people are people and it dont matter as long as there there in numbers "supporting" the campaign.

well if people go for the music and learn something about the campaign then that can only be a good thing.

That's what i did today. Had a swim too and a great time. Ronnie drew played too. Christy played great ones. Black is the colour, ride on, lisdoonvarna, Joxer. I'm really glad i went.

Seems the campain was about a major redevelopment of the seafront, which would be a major eyesore, and a redirection of funds from the needy. Protest mainstay Richard Boyd Barrett was there and is chair of the committee. There's a county council vote in october, where there'll be more shouting and stuff.

I just caught the end of the concert, I really wished I was there earlier. Seeing Christy play a cover of 'hurt' nearly brought tears to my eyes
