English but very involved with the foundation of independent Ireland from the 1900s onwards. British intelligence gave her the nickname 'Maud Gone Mad'. W.B. Yeats supposedly propo...

At about 58 minutes into Steve Nieve's recent show on Facebook, with Elvis guesting, Muriel mentions that Sebastian Krys is watching.

Is Arlo McFurlow a real person or a new pseudonym (Arlo McFourlow is credited with Eamonn Singer for the lyric video)?
It seems likely its a new pseudonym.

Oddly enough Elvis getting a OBE may have been a contributory factor to these recordings happening. He got the medal at a ceremony in London on Feb. 14th. That was two weeks before the UK tour started on Feb. 28th. I gather these ceremonies are scheduled very far in advance. It would have been more ...

I'm going to be in Liverpool for the day on Sunday, before traveling on to Blackpool on Monday morning for Elvis's show that night.
I'm hoping to revisit some of the locations I last saw all of fifteen years ago and will , of course , report back here.
