The Irish are usually the ones causing the drama on Dropkick Murphys videos, especially on their cover songs. Every video of "Fields of Athenry" or "The Auld Triangle" has an argument started by some Irish guy claiming they ripped off his culture and ruined the song. It's pretty funny.Apparently none of the ones causing drama comment on the original versions of the song though.

Earthnuker, you just made a complete arse of yourself. Bert is Scottish not Irish. I am an old Scottish dude and you didn't piss me off. You are perfectly entitled to your opinion. LOL

Watch me piss off old Irish dudes! Ready? Here we go...Dropkick Murphys did it better. :D

Always thrive on good music. But heard the studio recording of this track a few days ago. Can honestly say its been a long time since a melody had such an effect on my Spirit than has Bert's guitar work on this song. I'm spellbound!!! Thanks Bert and thanks for posting. Have worked it out on guitar for myself. It's actually played in the alternative tuning DADGAD.
