What a pleasure to observe the flare-up between the composer and last surviving Dubliner and the drone-folk maestros and bouncy balladeers

Phil Coulter and John Sheahan vs Lankum and The Mary Wallopers: Sit back and enjoy the music-industry hatredThe billion-dollar Rings of Power is part of the weird new age of television

That wasn’t all. Sheahan described The Mary Wallopers as mediocre musicians and singers. “I am not too impressed by The Mary Wallopers,” he told the Sindo. “I played with them on the Heart of Saturday Night series on RTÉ. I was invited to join them, and we played a few songs together. They wouldn’t be my first choice of a guest on a solo show of mine.”, a band that I produced.

Phil Coulter is an old fool who means nothing and clearly has no ears left. But I expected more from John Sheehan. What the hell did he think of us if he thinks the Wallopers are ‘mediocre musicians’? Makes you wonder. I’m a bit gutted to be honest. That seems unlikely. But should it really come as a surprise that two octogenarians promoting their nostalgia tour should be out of sympathy with a younger generation who venerate them ? They’re too loud. They can’t play their instruments. They’re not as good as the old-timers. We have heard these complaints many times before. Perhaps they sting more in the world of traditional music, where cross-generational respect is a help rather than a hindrance.
