28 October 1986 – A fire destroyed the last Huguenot church in Dublin – St. Nicholas Without and St. Luke’s in the Coombe. It had been in constant use from 1714 to 1974. The @thechieftains performed in the church at the Liberties Festival in 1978. pic.twitter.com/vdm6MY64De— Festival of History (@HistFest) October 28, 2020
Fiddling while Rome thrives.
Damn cheese-eating, surrender Calvinists.
From 1987, an ad for Guinness featuring the Chieftains.
The late Derek Bell’s 1981 solo album remains a much sought-after collector’s item to this day.
