I remember when I first started to find out about all that sixties stuff, flower power, The Beatles, Woodstock etc asking my Da 'where were you in the 60s' type questions. Answer: listening to the Dubliners and other figures from the 'folk revival' in places like The Embankment. At the time I was horrified that my parents had managed to *MISS OUT* on the number one significant cultural event that happened during their youth ... of course now I realise that they were in the thick of an equally significant cultural event

The 60's never happened in Dublin really. Coz the Catholic church was in charge till the early fuckin 80's!! They wouldn't let it happen. Plus because of religious opression on our population over this century, we generally were and still are a very conservative society. Petrified of standing out from the crowd too much as we might be pointed at. If you lived in New York for 3 months , this is the first thing that strikes you

snakybus, what would you offer for a pepsi sponsored record deal to EMI records?

Do you say that cos we didn't have free love, LSD, rock'n'roll, sunshine and anti-Vietnam war protests? I'd say what happened here in the sixties was just as big a leap for us as what happened in California at the same time was for Californians

NO, not as a big a change happened here in relation to the population. Look at the huge changes in London, Paris, even the Art scene in Spain. But nothing radical happened in Ireland coz we were pinned down. And in rural areas, still are, judging by the success of Fianna Fail in the last election. God forbid if they stepped out of line and thought about their votes.
