    Oh, that is GOOD! On St. Patrick's Day there was an Irish "Karaoke" Pub in NYC where the bar keep, so sick and tired of everyone singing "Danny Boy" on St. Patrick's Day, was giving a free beer to anyone who did NOT sing THAT song! I think that's the way the story went. However, I think the three Muppets each earned their Guinness!! Malcolm

    Yes, there was an article a while back that mentioned a bar that banned Danny Boy for Saint Patrick's day. One of the things they mentioned was that it was named one of the most depressing songs ever. :P
