Fields of Athenry - Scruffy and the Tullamore Tree
Scruffy performs the Fields of Athenry to the Celtic Fans on January 02 2005 on his lonesome. While Scruffy braved the Arctic elements with the Tree's backing on CD Jock and the Serg were sweating it out in Oz at New Year recovery barbecues in 30 degree heat. The gig came about with a simple email to the Celtic football club from the band's Brisbane agent, Highland Paddie. It stated Scruffy was famous in Brisbane (Mental Homes) for singing the "Fields" and was in Scotland for a 4 week holiday. Could Celtic include him in their pre match entertainment? I am a die hard Hibby but the invitation from Celtic's PR man Tony Henderson to allow Scruffy to perform proves to me that Celtic are the club of the people. Long may they reign.
Hail Hail!

Tullamore Tree are a Brisbane based band who accidentally became popular in the wake of the Riverdance bandwagon and the Irish Theme Pub craze that hit the city in the late 90's. They were (and still are) not taken too seriously by the traditionalists as they concentrate on good pub entertainment delivered with a an irreverent attitude opposed to playing perfect jigs and reels that tend to blend into each other after a few Guinness. The repertoire consists of a few rebel and non rebel Irish and Scottish songs but they also make a mockery of blues, rock and pop songs too.
Some famous Irish artists such as Finbar Furey have attended Tullamore Tree performances and stayed to the end. (more likely due to the case of red wine he helped polish off rather than the band's prowess) But he did have a swally with Scruffy after the gig but this is more likely to be caused by the same fascination a bairn would have on their first trip to the zoo.
Audience participation is a great part of the act although "Public Humiliation" is a term that rolls of the tongue freely from most observers. It always seems the band are as much victims of this musical and verbal abuse as are the poor individuals Scruffy relentlessly lambasts with the help of a PA system and total lack of political correctness.
Scruffy is a singer with a Licence to offend; an expat Glasgow man and long time supporter of the best team in Glasgow who has called Australia home for the last 40 years. (I think Partick Thistle were good in 1966). Next we have a mere newcomer to Australia with only 22 years in the country, Jock (name changed to prevent embarrassment to his family) from Dalkeith (no his fault)ootside Edinburgh plays guitar and mandolin and is not impartial to alcoholic offerings.
Last but not least is dinky die Australian, the Sergeant who has only spent 3 and a half weeks in Dalkeith on a drinking holiday with Jock. He plays the bass and guitar and has signed the necessary forms with the Queensland mental health department to allow Jock and Scruffy out to play on weekends.
If all of the above still hasn't put you off coming to a Tullamore Tree gig and putting some money over the bar our gig guide can be found on the following website. www.users.bigpond.com/tullamore.tree
PS. If you're going to the bar please remember it's 3 pints of Guinness for the band.

Court for Scruffy and the outcome.
And why? The crooked system in Utah County. My pet was killed and my hubby pays the price in court Friday...WITH AN ATTORNEY. Do I need to go to the temple? Maybe at least the ward (mental) to be treated HUMAN?
