- Ah sure look, sometimes you gotta play the classics, right?
Here's a snippet of Dirty Old Town, recorded live from Ukulele Tuesday HQ a.k.a. The Stag's Head, in the heart of Dublin City. Come see us trying to break the record of how many ukuleles can fit in a pub there every Tuesday.

3 months after we posted our humble cover, it's with deep sadness we learnt of the passing of Shane McGowan of The Pogues. His unique, unmistakable voice, which popularised this tune among others, will be missed. Our condolences to his family.
Sinéad O'Connor, Christy Dignam and now Shane McGowan - what a sad year it has been for Irish music... but we'll play on.
Sad times indeed for Shanes family, (and all those who loved him,) but he would have loved your pub music gig. Great stuff, its only the rain that stops me living there😀
🎶🎶🎶
Song hail hail
Don't forget Dolores O'Riordan of the Cranberries 😢
I KNOW f'd up lads, really was a sad year. Keep playing, more videos like this please, we need music to heal❤
That's what it's all about. People singing, laughing, playing their instruments and having a bloody good time..!! 👍
Exactly ❤
Absolutely and doesn't matter if the song is from English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh, The point is people coming together singing, laughing and having a great time
It's even got its own Wikipedia page..!! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirty_Old_Town @@pamelacondila7828
@@pamelacondila7828 Glad to see someone gets it 😉
You might be surprised to learn that while it was filmed in a traditional Irish pub, there's people from at least 10 different countries and 3 continents playing music in this video - music brought us together.
We need a lot more of this, especially the way this poxy world is at the moment.
I'm English but I've worked in Ireland and NOBODY enjoys a good sing along and a few bevvies more than the Irish,I worked in Waterford and went on a few trips around the emerald Isle and it's BEAUTIFUL,stay happy, safe and healthy everyone ✌️
That's about MANCHESTER.
@@user-tr4dp9lj2f worked on Trafford park twice (had great food at Johns diner),went drinking in the grapes and then the (I think) starlight rooms,so I can safely say Manchester isn't QUITE as nice as Ireland,ggmu,have a good day user, by the way grapes and starlight were in Eccles
@@user-tr4dp9lj2f it's about Salford
You wanna come to New Zealand....💪😎🍺🇳🇿
@@62cripple not for me fella, Ireland is an hours flight away, the land of hobbits and orcs is twenty four hours away!!!
These beautiful people have unlocked the secret to Happiness no politics no cell phone except for the one just people enjoying the moment
beats people looking at their mobils all night don t it .
Hanging out with people is becoming a lost art
Absolutely
No shit
Doesn’t it just
@@kevdoran9918brilliant music 😉
What an absolutely beautiful moment, truly inspiriting. Ewan (the writer) and Shane (who did the finest rendition imho) would be moved and delighted by it, and would fit right in. RIP both.
Thank you. ❤
Lived in Irl for 3 years.
Loved the people, craic and the scenery. Beautiful country.
Oh wow, I once flew to Toronto and on that Flight was a band called The Sons Of Erin, I was blessed to sit beside the lead singer who played his ukulele all the way from Vancouver and sang this song! ..that was 53 years ago! What memories!
I worked in Sarnia building a rail tunnel under the St Clair River, there was a lot of Irish and Scottish working in the oil refineries etc. One Irish family the husband worked on the rail ferry that our tunnel would close down. Yet we found friendship, his wife ran a B&B and Irish bands would stay there. Arriving late at night after their gig, but no matter some beers, bread and cheese on the huge kitchen table and the instruments would come out. I didn't play anything, but they would not have me just sitting there, so it was the spoons for me. But I had to cut down the visits to only Fridays and Saturdays, as work got in the way of enjoyment. PS: This was in 1994/5
I’m Spartacus
About that time, in Sydney Australia, was a band the Sons of Arran. Perhaps the same, and this song was in the reportoire, along with the other great songs . The black velvert band, the town i loved so well, steal away, among many others
This is pretty darn cool!!! I can feel the vibe on everyone's face....absolutely love it!!!
How can you not love the Irish! Thank you ever so much!
This wonderful tune that originated in my mother's home in the Salford Quays transported to a joyous gathering in Ireland. Memories.
My dirty old town!
And my my dirty old town as well 👍
@@davidmcconville1756 welcome
@@boothy130 welcome
Thanks for that sweet message, glad it could bring happy memories! Here's to your dirty old town :)
No words just beautiful RIP Shane
In the 80's and 90's while on travel to Scotland. You would go into any bar, it seemed and find a gig band. So cool.
Wow!,That song always has the power to move me. I'm originally from Liverpool,and when I think of its rough old edges and wonderful people,I'm immediately back in my home city,even though I live hundreds of miles away now.
Song was written about Salford
Never knew that@@Dave-im3lm could be any town, I'm from Liverpool and we all sing it, it's a great song
Me too, a scouser. . . and I was 20/21 on a working visa in Oz 90/91. Used to drive 20 miles to Molly Blooms in Port Melbourne . . . for this song and ' The Leaving of Liverpool '.
It’s the North West but definitely not Liverpool…. MUFC
@@Dave-im3lm It is indeed. But the great thing about this, why it's so popular, and what makes it so reminicient, is it could be applied to any old dirty industrial/ex-industrial town. I'm also from Liverpool, and I also think of Liverpool when I hear it because that's the town I know and where I've always sang it in pubs (I've always known it was originally written about Salford). It's also why, since Irish bands started doing covers of it, most people think it's written about Dublin.
Love this song...would loved to have been there . Can't beat a good singalong. 👏👏👏
Oh, I miss this singing,playing,drinking in an old pub in ireland...😢....Hope to come back soon from germany...😢
Wonderful as it is with our ukulele group great English / Salford song.
came here to say that...without wanting to spoil anyone's fun !
by Ewan McCall (the late Kirsty's Dad)
@@JCMcGee
Loved this song from the very first time I heard it and it never seems to age. 👍👍👍
Fan bloody tastic. And no one spilt a drop 😎💯
Thanks for watching!
@@UkuleleTuesday All good love your work down here in New Zealand. Could you please do Black Velvet Band. It's one of my favourite songs. Cheers Steve 🥃🍀

Just found your amazing channel... Keep up the good work! 💪
@@UkuleleTuesday just found yours too, love what you guys are doing, I must pop in some Tuesday 🙏

Never experienced anything like this, looks like a world of fun and a great time.
My I love the Irish, much love fae Scotland ❤
This is what heaven is like to me.
Bloody fantastic 👏 Well done, everyone 😊
What a great song and what a great cover! 👍😄 Introduced to the Pogues as an Aussie teenager back in the mid/late 80’s. Rum, Sodomy and the Lash.
R.I.P Shane McGowan.
Beautiful. Greetings from Germany!
Hallo! Come visit some time 🙂
Great to see 😊 This was written about Manchester by a Scotsman and now you hear it in an Irish pub 😃
yeah it was written by Ewan Mccoll,kirstys father.Its about Salford docks.
@@davidw8906 He was a great songwriter and this song is timeless 🫶
Only written as a time filler for a scene change for a play he had written (often forgotten that McColl completely reformed theatre before he did the same to folk music) but the song connects. For me, McColls point always comes in his final verse... and the song was a call for social reform of the working class cities. In the case of Salford,vtge Town the song was written about, that regeneration didn't happen meaningfully until the late 80s... over 30/40 years after MacColls plea
@@MrMassivefavour He was a great talent and definitely underrated, his songs will live on forever though.
@@jimso771 Yes, I have "The Joy Of Living" lined up for my funeral 🤣 Now THERE'S a classic McColl final verse!
Seen a similar setup in a Manchester pub a few years ago, was brilliant 🇮🇪🇮🇪🍀🍀🥃🥃🍀🍀🇮🇪🇮🇪

Amazing ❤❤
Ewan McColl made a great job of this song I love his lyrics. They sound great !
Damn straight, but I don't think there's a better version than The Pouges.
@@rossgage9730 You do know that Ewan Mccoll was the father of Kirsty Mc Coll and member of the Pogues?
@@Gommerell yes I purchased Rum Sodomy and The Lash back in 1986.
The original recordings of this song sound nothing like the version we have come to know,we have Luke Kelly and the Dubliners with Phil Coulter to thank for that.
Looks like a really fun time.
Lovely, this reminds me of going to an Irish club in Harrow for a bit of a hooley on a Sunday lunchtime with maybe four generations, seven year olds to eighty somethings, all diving in and making marvelous music. That was decades ago, hope it's still happening!
Bloody heartwarming is what dat is!😊
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR SHANE ( from France ).👍.
Heartwarming
Wonderful bless the Irish ☘️
Oh that’s so good, lifts up your spirits.
the song is all about Salford in Manchester, England The writer was Ewan Mc Call - despite then surname he was English.
Love this would love to be there
Wonderful! Thanks for posting..all the best!
Love it ❤
LOVE IT❤
Lovely❤
I want to be there...I truly wish to be THERE!
Love it. And Dynamics!
Awww thanks! Yeah we try and play with dynamics to make it interesting. And add some cool instrumentation. And modulation, too... The Pogues version has 2 or 3 key changes! Were they trying for a Eurovision hit, or what?
Stunning video, thanks to whoever put this on. Great song done well by so many people.
Oh, that would be us. Our pleasure!
About an English town...
