'May the Bird of Paradise Fly Up Your Nose!' No wait, that was a country song by Little Jimmie Dickens. If you have a bit of Irish in ya then you'll know a toast or two. Maybe there's a blessing that your Granny always said. What might be your favorite?

While your celebrating today and your raising a toast, it's common to say Sláinte, which is basically 'to your health.' It's almost like 'cheers' but, not really.

 

On today's Chris O'Brien show we'll be enjoying a few songs from our in-studio guest Shane Mountain from the band Common Crossing. He'll playing and singing some Irish classics. Let us know what your favorite Irish toast or blessing is by calling 764-ROCK or telling us on Facebook.

"When we drink, we get drunk...when we get drunk, we fall asleep....when we fall asleep, we commit no sin....when we commit no sin, we go to Heaven.  So let's all get drunk and go to Heaven!'
