call of duty 4 most likley

tiddlywinks

j/k
maybe some Dropkick Murphy's, Pouges, etc.

and some wordplay of songs with "green" in them...

you mean don't wear orange i think?

No the St sixxxs Day

You most certainly dont! lol

I have a few Irish Hip-Hop tracks that I will be playing mixed in with some Irish Rebel songs, I will be closing with Ri Ra-25 O Clock In The Morning...great track...then it's on to the Guinness and a bit of fighting LMAO

The dubliners, dropkick muprhey, flogging molly, street dogs, the tossers, enter the haggis, the pogues, shane macgowan and the popes.

Who am I missing?

And this really depends on the place you're playing. If it's a club then it won't work, but if you're playing a bar I'd end with Seven Drunken Nights. Every drunk person loves singing that song.

The Wolfe Tones, Paddy Reilly, Luke Kelly, The Fureys & Davey Arthur...there are a LOT more too.

Damnit, I wish I was more than 1/8 Irish, then I would innately know this stuff.

hahaha

Of course!!

surprised no one has mentioned U2 yet....

Tommy Byrne from the Wolfe Tones is my grandmother's cousin, and Paddy Reilly is a good friend of my family as well. I met him at my grandparents anniversary party a few years back. True story. (end thread jack)

I love Paddy Reilly. His version of Luke Kelly's Peggy Gordon is one of my favourite songs of all time.

And the Wolfe Tones get's blasted practically every weekend when we are after hours partying lol

^^ c'mon guys throw a track list or something like that.
They just told me I'm lined up tomorrow to play at a bar from 2pm to 6 pm. Right after the city's parade ends. fawK!
I got no Irish music in my library.!!!! H-E-L-P - S.O.S !!!!!!!!!!

thread gets good in 4.....3....2.....1......CUE SIXXX

I'll throw a track list together for you but you have to give me 1/2 of your pay because I'm doing 1/2 of your job for you.

Seriously though, why are you DJing an Irish party if you have no Irish music :-/

I told the manager that I had no irish music and did not want to dj that day (It's my b-day) and he still asked me to do it. He was like "just get whatever says best Irish tunes from itunes" LOL
I play at that bar 2-3 saturdays a month. Rock and top 40 music. I guess he thinks they might not ask for a lot of irish music since they'll be drunk as fawk by 3-4 pm. Parade starts at 10 am .

i played ST patrichs day last year just play yuor normal shit and throw in some house of pain here and there...noone will notice

play green light too

So there have been some good suggestions for artists so far in this thread. If you really don't have time then just go to itunes (or any other comparable site with a rating system) and type in the artist name. Then listen to the songs that have a high rating and see if you can incorporate that into your set. Most people don't have a large selection of Celtic music and only recognize a handful of songs. If you do it this way then you'll have a better chance of them recognizing the music and thus enjoying it more.

^^ smart man right there. Thanks!

crack4djs has a st pattys day banger using the song from the departed

thats awesome..thanks dude. I have a gig.. I'm supposed to play UK/Irish music till 12. I didnt have any of that haha

its an irisr day why you playing uk shit?

Indeed

ween - blarney stone

(they're not really irish, but that song sure sounds like it)

Whiskey in the Jar imo

Well an irish band opens for me.. so the manager asked me to play like uk music to give that feeling of irish club i guess, and im supposed play that till 12, after that its w.e

By saying UK music, are you referring to Celtic music?

what about real ireland music? im looking for top 40 tracks from ireland
anyone?

If the objective is have nobody dancing then that'll work. Otherwise... yikes.

I mean, seriously.. "Dreaming my Dreams"? That's a snoozer. If you want Cranberries go with "Salvation" or "Zombie". Something a bit more upbeat.

^^ everything worked fine for me. Nobody requested any Irish music. I played rock in the beginning, then switched to pop and added a little bit pf house at the peak hour. I worked from 2 pm-8pm. Had a good time watching a lot of drunk busting their asses off with the ugliest falls i've seen. One got on top of the beer pong table and that shit broke. Funniest shit ever

im going to the alicia keys concert - have fun djing to a bunch of drunk lunatics

win

elevated booth FTW..

Ha ha you should know that irish top 40 is the same bullshit as everywhere, just check out whats currently no.1 in Ireland to see how much of a joke it is.

A bunch of no tallent fucks at the top, can you say paulie d

forgot the link to the top 40 list www.irma.ie

After everything I thought I was gonna do on Paddy's Day I ended up staying in (first time in god knows how many years). Going to watch Skindred's hometown gig on Friday so saving my liver lol. How did your guys Paddy's Day go? (not expecting many replies soon since it's still in its ascendancy).

still not off work lol

Jebus fucking hell at some of the posts in here.

S-EM-AYCH

The doors -Alabama song Very relavent for today
