I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Turns out I'm using this platform almost as rarely as I used the other one. Guess I shouldn't be surprised. Anyhow, be kind to each other. Unless the other is a nazi. Down with those assholes.

Some sights as I traveled to the concert venue. Some buildings that look very Irish. Some Tesco with Irish touches. Some posh Irish baby list their dummy. Some Irish clover on the side of the road. And the venue. Now for a nice Irish dinner and a craft IPA at the venue's restaurant half. ❤️ 🖤
