Trivia about The Wolfe Tones
- Banned in China: Given how pro-Republicannote many of their songs are, it should come as no surprise that many of them have been banned at one point or another from the UK and/or Irish airwaves. “Radio Toor-i-li-ay” mentions this and mocks it.
- Milestone Celebration:
- They released albums marking their 25th, 40th, and 50th anniversaries, as well as one for the centennial of the Easter Rising.
- “Celtic Symphony” was written for the centennial of Celtic FC.
- The Pete Best: Liam Courtney left the band after a year, to be replaced with Tommy Byrne.
