    That IS shyte music!!
    Um... I don't know - Looks like the same game to me! Except my one had 'Rusty Cage' and a few other songs like that :/

    Maybe you're thinking of the PS1 game, that had good music.

    Edit: in game music was dirt, FMVs had the good stuff!

    You still see him around town..

    Well, i haven't seen him in about a year, but i think he's still around.

    Very old looking though.

    What was the full story with him? I heard he inherited a load of money and blew it all.. Is that true?

    Who is that or what's the background behind him singing that?
    Can remember hearing it years ago.

    Aidan Walsh - From Cork i believe.

    He used to hang around town (Dublin City Centre) quite a lot, and go to gigs, and would often be seen around Bruxelles.

    I was a bit young at the time, but a few of my older brothers friends, were in a couple of bands.
    One day we were sitting around and a friend of mine's older brother came home with that album, and he told us all about "Aidan Walsh"

    We thought the album was briliant. :D

    He was eccentric to say the least.
    Anyway, the story i heard (A long time ago - I may forget bits, and may be adding bits) was that he had inhereted money from somewhere, and had spent it on Recording Studios, helping bands get equipment, Recording and releasing his own album, and rooms that he bought/leased and used to loan to bands to practice.

    I also heard loads of crazy stories about him, but i can't remember any of them, my memory is terrible for those sort of things.

    Something about him running up O'Connell street.

    I am sure there is somebody on Boards that could tell a lot more stories, and give a lot more detail about the chap then i can.
    Hopefully they do, I'd love to hear them (again).

    Thanks Allyall.
    I still have absolutely no recollection of where I heard that song, must have been on the radio a bit back in the day.

    Mrs Counterlock was going to the shop for an ice cream yesterday and I asked for a golly bar. She looked at me like I had two heads and she is only 2 years younger than me. I should have asked for for a packet of opal fruits and a super can of sunkist while she was at it :D

    Even tho I watched it with my Dad back in the day, I was too young to appreciate the show. Watched a few episodes on the new version a year ago (Which follows the original well) It really was a good show.

    They don't make 'em like they used to:

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    ―Oscar Wilde predicting Social Media, in The Picture of Dorian Gray
