Do you remember Neil saying this in Through A Long And Sleepless Night ?
Well, here is what I have found near Hannonland.
This is called the Londonderry Air, but here the pipes aren't blocked.... |

Erm, I thought it was taken from the Irish shanty "Oh Danny Boy / The pipes the pipes are calling".

The line "the pipes are blocked" is a play on the original lyrics. That's how I always read it, anyway.
Are you in Ireland, taking pictures of Irish graffiti?!?
