“Now you'll sing a song of liberty for blacks and paks and jocks
And they'll take you from this dump you're in and stick you in a box
Then they'll take you to Cloughprior and shove you in the ground
But you'll stick your head back out and shout "We'll have another round!”
RIP

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Denny Laine passed away peacefully this morning with his wife Elizabeth at his side. It's perhaps poetic that he departed this mortal coil 50 years to the day that Band on the Run - his and Paul's crowning glory - was issued in America.
Rest in peace Denny.
Denny Laine (born Brian Frederick Hines), October 29, 1944 – December 5, 2023.

Dublin turned out for Shane.
‘I'm not singing for the future
I'm not dreaming of the past
I'm not talking of the first times
I never think about the last
Now the song is nearly over
We may never find out what it means
Still there's a light I hold before me’
