Technically, the Undertones are British, not Irish.

Great to see another Groundhogs fan on TDPRI!
the radio station who did the survey, radio nova, is a classic rock station. the result is not that surprising given its audience demographic - i'd say the youngest listeners are in their 30s.
neither were british. my bloody valentine were an irish band, formed in dublin and they considered themselves as such. stiff little fingers identified themselves as northern irish, distinct from either irish or british and they repeatedly reflected this in their politics and their music.

This, from a huge Thin Lizzy fan. That's right: I'm seven meters tall and weigh more than 3,000 lbs

The distinction between British and Irish when it comes to Northern Ireland is a complicated one.

(Although Brexit seems to have increased the number of people choosing to hold an Irish passport in NI.)

I don’t know if Lizzy is the best, but they have to be the loudest. Without any doubt, the loudest show I have ever seen was Lizzy opening for Blue Oyster Cult. Great bands both, but excruciatingly loud that night. I had to rip pieces off of my T-shirt and stuff them in my ears to get through it.

Looking at the red poster... Juders Preast? An early Judas Priest, or someone else?That's nice.

Thin Lizzy deserves the accolades.
I prefer The Chieftains, The Bothy Band, Moving Hearts, or Altan.
Enya is not a band but she’s done ok.
