OFFICIAL STATEMENT BY THE FIREN' SQUAD HIGH COMMAND:


With immediate effect, the activitys of the FIREN' SQUAD are to cease. After 5 years of getting away with it, the Squad is to be dispanded immediatly. Although we recognise that there are still, and will continue to be, many,many,many bad tunes bieng forced upon us, and there will always be countless brilliant tunes that will die of lonlieness without us, We, the High Comand of the Squad, officially recognise our time has come, we have been Axed, we have been deleted, erased, filled-in, brushed under the carpet, abandoned, over-written, understood, over-worked and made Far less important by things like War and Micheal Jackson. In the immortal words of spinal tap's manager, we now require a "more selective" audience, we have expired, we are finished now, what's your name again, where you from, what'd you do, alright bud, sound, sorted, see you later, it`s time to get me coat.

The Aims of the Squad were simple -

* Play new tunes, and dig a little deeper about what makes them good, or bad.

* Provide a nice day out for the wonderfull personalitys that admit to making our scene happen.

* Fill Radio Time with something visual and involving that crusties couldn`t understand.

* Provide a Quality painting & Decorating Service to the people of Dublin 4.

We Believe we succeeded in 75% of our Aims, and we feel that now is as good a time as any to take a rest and stop all this nonsense before we become 50% or even 25% effective.

All plastic Weapons are to be handed over to the Oxfam shop, and the McVities Canvass bag is to be returned to Gerry Ryan's desk, from where we originally stole it, (minus the biscuits of coarse.. write it off as "shrinkage") All the Sound Effects are to be released from their their High-Security Minidisk, and allowed to return to their respective Film Soundtracks - That is: Django, Resevoir Dogs, Evil Dead 2, Terminator 2 and The long good friday.

The FIREN' SQUAD wishes to thank everybody who covered up for us and helped hold it together over the years, especially Lieutenant JOHN POWER & Colonel IAN WILSON, without whom we would have been sussed a very long time ago, and to the kind security staff who helped people when they got their heads stuck in things, and hushed up the fire-extinguisher fights and beer spillage incidents.

There now follows a list of HONOUR, in recognition of those who dragged their asses in FOR FREE and sacrificed their thursday or saturday evenings, to provide us with over 200 hours of distraction, and provided me, personally, with the best fun i've ever had, disguised as work..
