If you think the Irish rebel music is crap then don't comment It is a part of Irish culture so get of ur high horse u snotty nosed orange pr**ks

So what, not liking rebel music automatically makes one an Orangeman or a unionist? Also, I think you'll find everybody has the right to comment, seeing as this is a thread on that particular subject.

You better return to under that rock you came from, otherwise some 'orange c unt' might steal it from you;)

I like rebel music. I've seen the Wolfe Tones live and a couple of rebel bands in Glasgow when I've been to watch Celtic. One of the bands in Glasgow I saw who sang more recent rebel songs actually went on in paramilitary uniform.

I've enjoyed watching them all. A good drink is often had and the place is usually buzzing. :cool:

And what, you find that okay?

Should have reported it to the police. Could have been a dissident trying to recruit Scottish Celtic fans to join.

Yeah, or it could have been Bin Laden under that balaclava. Jesus Christ, you don't do yourself or your side any favours.

And that's the reason I hate rebel music because it tends to attract idiots..mindless idiots at that.
I can understand people liking it and to each their own but then we have comments like above that justify my view of people that enjoy it.;)

And other music does not attract idiots and mindless idiots at that and how can that posters personnel view justify your generalising of people who genuinely like it ?

I don't really think anything of it to be honest. I found it quite remarkable as I've never heard of a rebel band doing that before but it doesn't offend me no. I'm not particularly politically minded, I just enjoy some of the music.

I'm a young lad in my early 20s living in England. I have a hobby of getting tanked up on lager with my friends having a sing song and going to the football which a lot of friends my age like to do. Report away Keith if you must

:rolleyes:

Good for you. I never suggested otherwise.

We have been reading reports in the papers of the dissidents looking to Scotland to recruit people. So it isn't out of the question. There is videos on youtube of dissidents in halls making short speeches.

It is a fair question. Should have reported it to the police IMO.

To be honest with you I think it's kinda offensive

I wouldnt be offended but as an irish person and trad musician I would just be horribly embarrased

I accept some people find it offensive, I'm not going to argue with you. It doesn't offend me personally. I'd rather not get dragged into the Northern Ireland political situation with KeithAFC currently lurking about and myself being rather ambivalent and tired of it all.

Why does the queen even come into it? You're doing your own argument more harm than good spouting nonsense like this. And you tell other people to stop expressing their points, then point out you have the right to talk freely? Brilliant. You couldn't make this up.

Yeah, pretty much my sentiments. It's down there with burning Union Jacks on Hill 16, in my opinion.

Of course other music attracts idiots...look at rap for god's sake

And notice that I said it attracts a lot of lot of idiots which the Op proved but I also said there's always genuine people who like it as well...

In all honesty I think its utter ****e as well and I'm 100% Irish. It's not my style of music at all but I'm very tolerant of other people's likes and beliefs. The same can't be said for alot of people on this message board.

deftlefthand, you dont like it.. grand, but those who offend those of us who do like it, are just opening yourselves to the same level of abuse that "trad/folk" people are getting

I would tell you to "take it down" but I doubt you would know what that refers to

No I don't know what that refers to man. I'm not trying to offend you because you like trad music, we all have our different tastes and that's cool you like it and I don't but that doesn't give you the right to make sweeping genrealisation's that such folk who dislike it are of the Unionist persuasion.

My main point was not to do with you directly but with Boards.ie as a whole, I've found the levels of intolerance and bias on this site appalling in recent months.
