This is my band's 4 song Ep which can be found on itunes, emusic and amazon.com. It's just 4 old Irish/sea shanty songs done live in the studio (mostly) The main track, "I'll tell me ma", was recorded and then shipped down to Ex-dead boys and current Batusis guitarist Cheetah Chrome for him to put some leads on it. It came out pretty good considering. I could have sang it better. My two favorites are Roddy McCorley which was banged out in two minutes and Farewell to Nova Scotia/the tarbolton reel which is all live except for the mandolin solo's. Hopefully we'll have some decent original tunes to throw down soon so we aren't just a bunch of knock off artists. I wrote some good shit. Here's some lyrics to my song, "Pity the Sober" Alright maybe not great but good enough for a shitty Irish band
God only gave my daddy 50 years and then 8 more
believe me he didn't spend em' sippin tea like a fucking bore
some Clancy's and the whiskey Frank Sinatra and the brew
When daddy went he was half in the bag
and believe me I will be too
cause God doesn't care if your always on the tear
and Jesus doesn't mind if your always half pissed blind
God made man
then mad made booze
you don't have any time to lose
so open up a bottle and drink
you sober bastard you

Not bad for Irish kid from Long Island...
I refuse to play a part in a song with such overt religious symbolism, this aint fucking Creed or Faith Plus One...
douchebag, that song is about as religious as you are
