In a World where
‘Lies have become the new truth” My friends Eugene Reavey + Stephen Travers bucked this trend and realised ‘truth’ through resilience, determination and integrity.
In contrast to a State devoid of these qualities.
You won!
This day 32 years ago I stood on a stage in New York singing at a festival with More Power to your Elbow after the World Cup game between Ireland and Italy. Joy turned to despair with the news loughinisland massacre. Thoughts and prayers with all the families God bless you all.
As a tribute to my friend and colleague Brendan O'Brien - RIP - I am posting the YouTube version of our 1995 film (Friendly Forces) about the collusion at play in the 1974 Dublin Monaghan bombings. https://t.co/ozc0R7p3St @rtenews is not mentioning this film in its death reports
I’ve had tea and polite conversation with the king of England and attended Mass with the king of Spain. I’ve met with the wise and the wicked but it was a blind man who showed me the world and a dying child who taught me how to live in it. #TheBassPlayer
A huge Thank You for an unforgettable week. Thank you to all who made the Bealtaine festival event at Nenagh Library a huge success and to everyone for their beautiful response to our ‘Stories and Songs of Healing & Hope’ presentation at The Spirit Store last night. #HopeSurvives
Their stories must be kept alive until there’s truth and justice for all. Then, and only then, can they rest in peace. In the meantime, the covering up and the gaslighting by Operation Kenova/Denton continues on an industrial scale. #ScrapTheLegacyAct now.
I’ll be talking to Joe Duffy on Dundalk FM at 3.30pm today about our event on Sunday May 17th at The Spirit Store to benefit Irish Cancer Society. Coincidentally, May 17th is also the 52nd anniversary of the Dublin Monaghan bombings which should be a national day of remembrance.
Sixty years ago this month, I discovered a lifelong passion for the bass guitar. I was 15 years old and had played guitar for four years but it was the bass that changed my life in more ways than I could have imagined. It showed me the best and the worst this world has to offer.
The world needs some Healing & Hope and Irish Cancer Society needs a helping hand at The Spirit Store on Sunday, May 17th ❤️🎶 https://t.co/6Qo0Dja0hU
The victims of the Dublin/Monaghan bombings which murdered 34 people, the largest loss of life in a single day during the so-called Troubles, and injured almost 300, should be officially commemorated, nationwide, in Ireland every year on May 17th. #LestWeForget
