    Online would be your best bet I'd say, they wouldn't be the most sought after in brick and mortar shops in Ireland.

    There's something about amazon not shipping to Ireland, but I think CD's are ok?

    They won't ship electronics, I think it's to do with WEEE directive. CD's are fine.
    When the WEEE directive was introduced, the retailers were supposed to absorb it. Dick Roche assured us they would.
    But every single one passed it onto customers.
    A rant for another day, doesn't belong in this thread

    I only watched 10 seconds of that song so you may well be correct.

    God that video takes me back.....I think the song provided the inspiration behind Fr. Dick Byrnes effort in the Father Ted episode "A Song For Europe" :D

    They still are big in Germany if music stores are anything to go by. I was shocked when I was in Berlin and found a huge rack of this stuff and not only that but people coming over and buying it without ANY IRONY!

    I bet people would take them more seriously if they didn't look the way they do :o

    From what I've heard of them, they aint too bad :) I think they are Irish too, well, Irish American.

    Germans: make great cars and are extremely efficient. Extremely beautiful country, friendly people but horrendous taste in pop music!!!

    Bob Dylan is a big fan of them. He has actually came over and jammed with them on a few occasions.
