| None of these bands were influenced by Horslips -- with the possible exception of The Tossers, but I need to ask to know for certain -- and although their songs are in public domain, these recordings may not be as lucky. This page was prepared for friends and family and all files will be removed on March 19th. What I suggest is this: go find a young, struggling band playing somewhere with a cover charge of $5 to $10 USD and sit down and listen to their music and buy their CD between the sets, buy them a round between the sets, buy yourself a round between the sets, but above all: tell them that you enjoyed the show. |
