Wow same here. I'm Black Irish with a little Welsh mixed in for flavor. It's weird, my family were the only Black Irish I knew of till recently. I just met a few other folks with strange blue eyes and dark skin that said they were Irish... We're a weird lookin breed.
Black Francis the 1st did mention that they will record this go-round. Pending they are able to stick it out long enough.
This year I swore I was going to dig into St. Patty's traditions and try and properly celebrate this holiday like an Irishman should but now that I think about it, getting a whiskey i-v and passing out in the shitter is probably what I'm supposed to be doing anyways.
