| Looks like it's gonna be pretty tough getting to the bar in
Johnny D's on Saturday evening......and at 8.03 a mighty migration
across the road.....I just hope he's feelin' a little nasty and
has no new songs about knitting needles and babies' names!!!!!!
The time to cut loose is nigh......

| I am sure there is someone out there who has the lyrics of
"Irish Ways and Irish Laws" by Christy Moore!
Would appreciate your jotting them down for me.
Thanks.
Frances.

Irish Ways and Irish Laws Written by John Gibbs
Once upon a time there was
Irish Ways and Irish Laws
Villages of Irish blood
Waking to the morning
Waking to the morning
Then the Vikings came around
Turned us up and turned us down
Started building boats and towns
They tried to change our living
They tried to change our living
Cromwell and his soldiers came
Started centuries of shame
But they could not make us turn
We are a river flowing
We are a river flowing
Again, again the soldiers came
Burnt our houses, stole our grain
Shot the farmers in their fields
Working for a living
Working for a living
Eight hundred years we have been down
The secret of the water sound
Has kept the spirit of a man
Above the pain descending
Above the pain descending
Today the struggle carries on
I wonder will I live so long
To see the gates being opened up
To a people and their freedom
A people and their freedom
Once upon a time there was
Irish Ways and Irish Laws
Villages of Irish blood
Waking to the morning
Waking to the morning

Subject: In need of a Christy Moore fix!
I've started listening to Christy Moore again recently (my new car
has a great cassette/radio/speaker system in it) and would
love to see him again live in concert.
I saw him in a Salthill, Galway disco (??) at Connor's pub back in 1985 or
86 and again in Somervill, MA at the Davis Sq theater in 89 or 90.
Has he been back to the USA for a tour since 1990?
Does anyone know if he is planning a USA tour in the near future?
How is his health?
Is he still doing concerts?
Is he still on the dry?
If anyone hears news of him in Ireland please post and keep us
outsiders informed.
His rhythm, voice and lyrics are very inspirational to me.
Listening to his live tape last night helped me get pumped up for an
indoor soccer game.
Cheers,
Paul
