I’m not normally here at the Countryman Inn on a Wednesday night but it’s #folknight and as I’m close by, it would be rude not to! Not many performers here this evening apparently but here is one my favourite songs #FishermansBlues 😃

Saw the Waterboys HQ at Roundhouse tonight - Brought my daughter - it was up there with the best. #Fishermansblues #bangontheear #purplerain tunes&lyrics

“I wish I was a fisherman/ Tumblin’ on the seas/ Far away from dry land/ And its bitter memories'
#MusicHistory On this day, 1988, the truly epic 4th album, #FishermansBlues by Mike Scott & #TheWaterboys was released. This work easily deserves to be called one of the best ever.

This is what happens when the band Concrete Prairie is joined by members of Fly Yeti Fly and Courting Ghosts to play Fisherman's Blues! @Mickpuck we hope you like it! See you in Bath 😍

#Nowplaying The Waterboys #FishermansBlues such a lovely album, tempted to pick up the expanded boxset and other titles…. what to point to start at Mike Scott The Waterboys

“And on that grand and fateful day
I will take thee in my hand
I will ride on a train
I will be the fisherman”

Last year marked 100 years since my grandfather arrived in the U.S. from #Scotland , but it turns out our family is way more #Irish than we realized, which explains why #FishermansBlues has always mainlined its way to what I now know is my #Galway heart. tinyurl.com/3x7nbyp2

Sheer Joy. Fast car. Straight road. THIS filling my ears.

Mike Scott The Waterboys #fishermansblues wondering was this the inspiration for the album cover?

Good morning Twitter Folk

Today was my allocated fishing day, so naturally the river is 2 meters up ☹️

#FishermansBlues

When I first heard this at 18 it already felt like home as The Waterboys made a pathway to my #Galway heart. I'm not a fisherman and I don't like boats, but #FishermansBlues will always stop me in my tracks. #HappyStPatricksDay #LightInMyHead #YouInMyArms bit.ly/3n2Jl3b
