Anyone listen to these guys? Anyone seen them live?

I've never seen them live, but I've got a couple of their CDs. I think Ordinary Day is my favorite song of theirs. In my opinion, they've gone too far into the pop of pop irish, but some good stuff shines through from time to time.
edit: A Boat Like Gideon Brown is also really good

I've seen them a couple of times. I missed them last time they came to Edmonton as my son was born the day before. They put on one of the most energetic and entertaining shows I have ever seen. They are one of the few bands my wife and I actually agree on listening to.
I think that my favorite album is Up or Play but I like all of them quite a bit. I want to see the DVD they released a little while ago.

I've seen them a few times back out East but I confess I don't own any of their albums. They do put on a good show and the singles I've heard were all a lot of fun. My brother-in-law knows them from the Newfoundland music scene but he's yet to invite them to any parties I've been to. I think he's ashamed of me (wanker!)

I love them. I am anxiously awaiting their new CD and am very disappointed that I won't be able to see them live.
