Ah! Good old Christie Moore. Isn't it nice that he eventually stopped fund raising for the Provos. Phuquer of the first order and wildly over rated as a 'musician'. Dull shyte.

I saw Christy a few times in his pre-provo days and enjoyed him immensely. I last saw him in the Rialto in Derry Circa 1981 and felt rhetoric on stage was if not “anti-me”,excluding me. An uncomfortable experience, I enjoyed the socialist disliked the republican.

I still retain an affection for some of the music.
Sound, measured post Baggy. Sums up what many people not from a republican background feel towards Christy, without any of the OTT shyte that Jack produced.

Many of the BOI staff are a waste of tissue and gristle however please don’t fall into the old nonsense of blaming the common man at the counter, everyone I know would have welcomed Paddy and Stu back with open arms. As always, you need to bend your neck and look upwards for the scumbegs.
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

Went to see Christy around the mid 90s when he wrote 'North & South of the River'. He talked a bit when he presented it. One thing he said that night that stuck with me since "I woke up to all this when I stopped drinking" Maybe he seen the winds a changing maybe he was being honest, but he identified where his demons were. If you can enjoy a wee drink and put it down again be thankful

Can Christy play 10?

If you consider pointing out that raising money by vermin like Moore for the Provisiional IRA /Sinn Fein to buy guns and explosives to murder and maim the population of the country is OTT shyte then you need a reality check. You might be happy with stars like that and maybe you have 'moved on' or maybe you weren't the victim of that rat diarrhoea masquerading as humans. I was, some of my co-workers were killed and maimed by Moore and his money. Phuque him and his ilk and his dreadful crappy attempts at music.

Might I suggest we draw a line under Mr Moore and move o... Jaysus, I nearly said it.

LOOK, Jack has his mind made up, he's not for changing and I'm not blaming him, the fundraisers can't shirk responsibility for what their fundraising bought.

I don't hold Christy in the regard I once did, each to their own. I hope as someone who has been sober for 25 years he realises he was a dick supporting murder.

And no, he'd be a shyte 10.

A lot of people's favourite people feature here (talking about his concerts for the Ireland squad in Carton House over the years)!

Can you remember what players sung with you?
As far as I can remember Trevor Brennan sang Ordinary Man; Reggie Corrigan, Nancy Spain; Keith Wood, Fields of Athenry; Rog, Ride On; Denis Leamy, The Contender; Donncha O’Callaghan, Joxer and Black is the Colour; Brian O’Driscoll, City Of Chicago; Luke Fitzgerald, Reel in the Flickering Light; Davy Tweed, Four Green Fields. I am doubtless leaving out a few from over the years but these were the more memorable performances. Apologies to anyone not mentioned but we all get dropped eventually!

Worth a listen, (Island Discs) particularly from about 20 mins in when he talks about the Troubles in NI.

Nothing boils my pi$h more than a bitter fukker that'd seemingly want their grandkids to go through the same tom kite we've went through.

If that means our generation has to be a bit bigger and just have to live with the tom kite, I'm happy to shoulder my share of that burden.

I'm not wasting my life wallowing in bitterness. Might I suggest you look to do the same - you'll be all the better for it.

Nothing boils my pish more than people telling other people how they should be or what they should be doing. You've no idea what experiences Jack has had through his life, nor have I any idea what you've been through or if you were even alive during the Troubles. Nonetheless, i wouldn't dream of telling you what you should be doing. Who mentioned anything about wanting their grandchildren to go through the stuff they went through?

If I applied the auld moral compass to my music collection there wouldn't be much left.
Volunteer at an animal sanctuary; it will fill you with joy , despair, but most of all love, unconditional love of the animals.

I am not remotely bitter in any shape or form. I never have been and I never will be. That sort of hopeless shyte is the privilege of morons. I just have utter contempt for those who perpetrated wholesale destruction and murder and equally for those who hid behind others but helped pay for it. I have equal contempt for the morons and bigots who wave 'flegs' and deny equality for others. It's a pity you can't see the point.

Have you any proof that Moore raised money for the Provos? My understanding is that he was involved in supporting the Civil Rights Movement (which is to be expected as he has made a career out of supporting such causes). He was profoundly affected (like many people) what what happened in Derry/L'derry on Bloody Sunday, just the same as he was profoundly affected by the Enniskillen bombing in 1987.

From what I can see, you don't actually know a lot about Christy Moore. He has been writing and singing social commentary songs since the early 70s. Some of his subject matter has included Anti-nuclear power, abuses by the catholic church, Anne Lovett (who died in a grotto having a baby because of shame), anti US military use of Shannon Airport on its way to Iraq, songs about the Stardust tradgey (which was banned). How the hell do you expect him to ignore the troubles in Northern Ireland?
