Title: Happy Saint Paddy's Day! - 'Is there anybody here with any Irish in them?...'

'Is there anybody here with any Irish in them? Is there any of the girls who’d like a little more Irish in them?' - Phil Lynott (muscian, legend, poet).
 
Well, it's 1:00 Am on the 17th March and I've got a Whiskey in hand. That can only mean one thing. No, it's not another live stream by NWR. That's right, it's St. Paddy's Day! I've been playing guitar all day, screaming Flogging Molly songs at the top of my lungs, and extrolling the virtues of Irish Whiskey over Scotch.
 
So to get you guys in the mood, I've asked my mates (situated around me currently) to recommend some songs. Enjoy.
 
Slainte! Saol fada chugat.

Sorry. My brother Mick insisted that I include this also.

My mom's side of the family is Irish (name's Hurley) so I almost have legitimate reason to be celebrating. I almost went to the liquor store and bought a bottle of Jameson for the occasion, but since I didn't I'll have to be sacrilegious and drink my Laphroaig 10.

Jameson is some of the worst tasting liquor I've ever had.

Are there whiskys you do like or do you just have a problem with that one in particular?

I'm not a big fan of whiskey in (general prefer rum or tequila), but Jameson is the worst one I've had. Jack and coke is bearable, though still don't love it.

This isn't just the Irishman in me talking, Jameson is the greatest. It's so damn smoothe. I treat myself to a bottle every month or so. Most of the time I drink Bushmills or Bells because they're cheaper, but Jameson is my favourite medicine.
