After a long and very disruptive software malfunction, we're up and running again. Apologies to those whose posts were lost and to those who had to re-register as we had to take the board back to an earlier back up point. On the positive side, we hope that you will enjoy the cleaner style and new features now offered on the Forums. Stop by often and post a message or two! ~~ Regards, Madra Rua

British Pathé

This isn't about Irish music at all, but very interesting for anyone interested in Irish history. Pathé News has just released 3,500 hours of Irish film footage dating back to 1900 on its website. These newsreels have been unavailable until archivists digitized the collection.

Videos include rare footage of JFK's visit to Ireland in 1963, Michael Collins on the election trail, and German bombing in Dublin in 1942. Things like the new Dáil cabinet in 1922, the War Of Independence, the foundation of the Republic, World War II, and Ireland's version of the "swinging Sixties" are included as well.

Well worth a look!
