    Yeah i agree! However our parish has another amazing drummer, Gerry Wilkinson of the Rubber Plants (Led Zeppelin Tribute).
    All hail Ardboe ''Rock City''

    Since you seem incapable of using the web for a tiny bit of research, you might realise that Horslips werent all from the north and Barry Devlin played bass not drums.

    As homework, go and find out which noted rock journalist was the actual drummer for horselips :)

    I didn't cope that he called Barry Delvin the drummer. Eamon Carr was the drummer and was from Kells in Co meath. Not from the north. My mother knew him quite well. Delvin wasn't that great of a bass player and he was responible for such ****e as Ballykissangel.

    that best band for the north IMO would be 'More Power To Your Elbow'... celtic rock at its best..... but they are long gone

    Does anyone remember a Celtic rock group called Mushroom? I think they where the lesser horslips.

    Why do you say they are the best band in the north at the moment if they are "long gone?
