Oddly his playing profile doesn't mention his stint in Belgium where, if I recall correctly, he was in trouble for assaulting a referee.

You know Phil Lynott grew up in Dublin and apparently a friend of a friend recollects him saying Dublin was the greatest city in the world and was an inspiration for every successful song Thin Lizzy had because it was such an amazing place to grow up. The source said he also thanked his lucky stars that he was fortunate enough not to grow up in the west of Ireland. A barren wasteland full of undesirables he called it. True Story

My uncle actually hung around with him when they were younger in Crumlin

Whiskey is in the jar is just about one of my detested songs ever.

Yes I knew where he grew up, hence me being very specific and only including those born there

Same source says that his biggest great was not growing up in the South and having the chance to be an adopted man of Munster. True story

Yeah it's an odd one, even Metallica's cover annoys me.
