Happy Canada Day to all those here from there!

The Irish and the Scots Are From the Same Tribe Ireland used to be divided up into five parts, the five fifths. There was a northern fifth, Ulster, a western fifth, Connaught, a southern fifth, Munster, an eastern fifth, Leinster and a middle fifth, Mide. Click here to see a map of the five fifths.

The Ulster Cycle is a set of stories which are grounded in the five fifths. Indeed, they are primarily concerned with Cú Chulainn, the Ulster hero and his king, Conor Mac Nessa in their wars against the king and queen of Connaught, Ailill and Maeve. These figures play a prominent role in the what may be the greatest story of the Ulster Cycle, the Táin Bó Cúailnge, The Cattle Raid of Cooley.

Sometime after 300 AD, Ulster became steadily less important in status among the five farthings and the ruling family of Mide, the Uí Néill Sons of Niall started to take over large parts of Connaught and most of Ulster. A similar move was made in Muster by the ruling family of Munster, the Eoganachta family. Thus was Ireland divided almost entirely into two halves.

The people of Ulster were pushed to a small coastal strip bordering the Irish Sea. The kingdom changed it's name to Dál Riata. Yet eventually Dál Riata fell under the rule and influence of the Uí Néill. This family, not content with the boundry presented by the sea, launched colonies across the Irish Sea into then Pictish Britain. Thus was Scotland founded, for it was these Uí Néill that the Romans called Scotti, not the original Picts.

Nothing Irish about that ;-)

That was so retarded ffs!

scubadaz - Yeah I've tried to talk to RubyG here a few times too, but it never did seem to work. He replied to my email though, so maybe things are OK now. We'll see.

I'd go for Crystal Planet or The Extremist as your next Satriani album. After that, since you're a Sammy fan, I think you might like the sound of Is There Love In Space?...check those out and let us know what you think. There are sound clips available in the "music" section of this site, if you need help deciding.

I was at the SF Chickenfoot show as well. Where were you in the crowd?

I'd be OK with skipping the tour, but I looked at the setlist and The Unforgettable Fire and Ultra Violet were played...those are probably my favorite songs from each of those albums. So I might end up buying a ticket after all. And with my luck, they probably won't play those at my show. ;-)

I guess it all depends on whether I get a job before then...

me mum's dad was a dutchy. he used to ask us if we wanted some orentch choos. we'd say no we didn't like it, to which he'd say "vats ronk, you don't like pits in yer choos?"

no pits in my choos, thank you anyway.

:-)

Got my tix for the Tahoe show, see you there Cheese101.

bluebuffalo - Davy Knowles and Back Door Slam, you mean?

It's a band. But Davy Knowles on his own (solo guitar and vocal) opened three Chickenfoot shows in the spring, as well as Jeff Beck's US tour a few months prior.

I've seen him solo three times (one JB, two CF), and each time he told the audience that he usually plays with a band.

The JB/CF shows were advertised as "Davy Knowles" and the new ones are advertised as "Davy Knowles and Back Door Slam"...so I expect the full band this time.

Thanks Austin, I knew I could count on you.

Joan and roy - wow the U2 gig looks awesome with the Claw, Istill put the U2 show I saw here in Melb at No.2 of all time for me, but Joe pips them for first spot.

roy - ooh re the sunburn,when you come to Oz we'll have to give you a bucket of zinc cream....

Here's an interview with Joe by TripleM radio in Oz it's sorta cute and nice, but cut out at 3 mins for me tho.

burly - morning buddy, don't work too hard

Woo hoo girls night tonight - yeah!! At my place so I don't need to drive

Slan you've cleared up a couple of life's little mysteries for me.

The five tribes tried to unite but two couldn't agree and started fighting, Now I know what Frankie goes to Hollywood were on about in their song "Two tribes".

The others didn't want to fight that day so had a party and all got drunk, Hence the origin of the term "Three parts pissed".

Blue_Moon :- Hey Al,it sounds like you reeeeaaaaaalllly need to come visit Australia,brother!!!!!

good morning America, just finishing up girls night in at my place, lots of good gals over, lotsa lovely wine, Robbie Williams live from Knebworth, doesn't get any better really, well unless Chickenfoot tour....work tomorrow with sore head but it's Friday so that's OK......
