The Saw Doctors are one of the best Bands i have ever had the fortune to listen to.
When Dan, Gee and I were young, all our parents would paly us was folk music and stuff like this, they loved it, we loved it. We totally grew up on the SawDoctors, the Dubliners, Pogues, Honest John, that kind of stuff. It so Rad, true music.

One memory that stands out for me is driving home from a BMX race when i was about 8 with dad and the bro’s, I had gotten 2nd place to this girl who i was battling all year, and was not that happy about it! This song came on and i just sang so loud to it ”To win just once would be enough…” that song has stuck with me all these years and although winning is not everything, it is quite wonderful and i always sing it at races at some point or other.
Me and my mum went to see them last year, it was my first time but Mum and Dad have seen them so so much, they used to go out with their friends and see them at pubs and gigs whilst all the kids stayed in one house messing around, theyd come home all merry singing the songs, one day mum brought home a signed Cassette tape by the whole band, it was fantastic!
When mum and I saw them last year, i have never had such a brilliant night EVER, perhaps only topped by AC/DC, but im not sure at all. It was AMAZING having them right there in front of me, in liverpool on the docks, pretty small venue, they just blew the place apart, SO enthusiastic, you would not have thought that they had been doing it for years and years, the passion, the interaction with the crowd, they were right there and present for every person.
Mum and I were going nuts crazy dancing singing waving cheering it was amazing!
Everyone was the same and i was struck by how the youngsters were just as into it as the older folks!
Woweee what a fantastic band, there music strikes a note with every feeling you can ever feel, it brings me back time and time again to memories of my childhood and what Fucking brilliant memories they were! I remember one time, Mum had gone to Ireland for an irish dancing weekend and gee and I were feeding my horse, and listening to this song called ”The Green and Red of Mayo”, its kinda slow and a bit sad and i got upset that mum would not come home and stay in ireland because its such a fantastic place, then i fell out of the hayloft onto my head! Blummin heck it hurt! so that song reminds me of that!
I just asked Affy and he say that this one song reminds him of when he and gee would go baleing up at the farm, throwing bales from the top of the trailer…good times!
We would always go to Ireland; Dublin, Cork, Kerry, when we were younger, driving our VW camper over there and it was just brilliant being in the pubs when you are young and everyone playing some instrument, happy as larry, singing,dancing, the irish know how to enjoy themselves and that rubbed off on us, I hold a small and burning passion for ireland, associating it with undiluted happiness, perhaps much to our Northern Ireland acquaintances disapprovement….! When Mum and I get on the dance floor at a ceilidh or at the Irish Dance classes that mum and her husband John teach, wowee never has so much fun been had by to women! Mum can dance like nothing you have ever seen, its amazing, and when i dance with her she steers me so good! When mum and john dance together, Holy, you have honestly never seen anything like it, Johns footwork is amazing, its so good, he really gets it, and mum can move like a wee angel!
I love irish dancing, not the riverdance sort, but the proper Set Dancing, 4 couples packed tight in a square, its enchanting, Fast and knackering!
Anyway, i just wanted to share with you guys how fantastic they are…

Every one admits that men’s life is high priced, but people need money for different stuff and not every man gets big sums money. Thence to get fast loan and small business loan would be good solution.
