Noel you're gonna make me cry in a minute

Are you aware of what’s inside your disposable vape? Unbelievable!

Thoroughly enjoyed #ManOnTheRun Brilliant documentary

I’d say the lad who invented the Polo made a mint

Is used to play the guitar by ear, but now I use my hands. It’s much more efficient.

A disgrace. How does he sleep at night after doing that?

@Mayor_Limerick 👏👏👏👏

Statement from Mayor of Limerick John Moran on proposal to record Full Council Meetings. Read full statement here: limerick.ie/council/servic…

This is long, long overdue. It will benefit both elected members and the public.

U2’s new EP is excellent.

Right place for him

@histofarch @BrianRoemmele Its’s Dublin. It’s a 1989 RTÉ television report titled "Dublin Goth New Wave Movement," which originally aired on the lifestyle programme Head to Toe. You can see it’s Dublin in this shot. Telecom Eireann phone box in background for example. I’ve gone too deep on this one 🤣

@BrianRoemmele Might be Dublin.

London in the 1980s. It was another time and it was another place.

Delighted to feature @patmontague on this week’s album suggestions blog: open.substack.com/pub/danloneill… Pat is a gentleman and a legend. Thanks for doing this Pat. #music #albums #soul #vinyl

Fair play to The National for refusing to be silenced #mandelson #epstein

A photo I took of Gareth Fitzgerald at the 2011 General Election count in the RDS on the 26th of February. He passed on that May. He would have been 100 years of age today.

This week, Sinèad Mercier shares what albums she’s listening to. A hypnotic ‘Soundtrack for Place & Possibility’ that captures Connemara’s wild beauty. 🎶 + Essential listening. Read: open.substack.com/pub/danloneill…

Macca could release absolutely anything and I’m here for it. The new Man on the Run soundtrack will effectively be the 6th ‘best of Wings’ album released… and the 2nd ‘best of Wings’ album in the past 12 months. 😝
