It would be great to end the shows with Oklahoma Ponies and have a good old ceilidh in front of the stage!  I'm sure the entire audience would be on their feet!    ;D

Not sure about that Val, with the age attendance at his shows these days the wailing guitar would play havoc with the hearing aids!  ;)

Just for the record, Guy confirmed my question that it was Mike McGoldrick who is laughing at the end of this track.

The guy laughing at the end is definitely not MK

That's not the way MK laughs

It's Mike as Guy mentioned

Just got my copy only two days ago.    This would make a fantastic opener for the tour.   One of the best of the release.  Can't imagine why it's on bonus tracks -- or Time Will Heal All Sorrows.    Both are major, in my opinion.   Ingrid, I agree with you.  Very Danny.    In fact, instrumentation very 1996.   Lyrics are current, though.   
But a spoonful of forgiveness
Goes a long, long way
And we all should do our best
To get along
