The West Bank Cafe in Manhattan recently staged a version of Liverpool Fantasy,
a play by Larry Kirwan, the leader of Black 47. It is a what-if play about the 1992
reunion of four old friends in an obscure northern English city.

Synopsis:
Lieutenant Brian Murphy, NYPD, died when the Towers fell that morning. Three years
later truth and memory blur as his family continues to struggle with their grief
and rage. Though their hero's shadow still looms large, it cannot obscure certain
inconsistencies that force the family to come to terms with the enigma of Brian.
The Heart Has a Mind of its Own is written by Larry Kirwan
(of the Irish rock band BLACK 47), and directed by Cailin Heffernan.

The Major Thinkers - Hammy, Larry, and Pierce - 1982
Hammy remembers, "Pierce and Larry convinced me to do this promo shoot for our band
(The Major Thinkers). The record company even decided to pay for my haircut, so
I went to this expensive hair dresser place and got the latest punk cut. When I
got home I realized how ridiculous I looked. I thought, 'I can't go to a photo shoot
looking like this', so I went out and bought a pair of clippers and just shaved
everything off.
The photographer was this crazy coked up punk rock guy who kept us in his studio
for ever. The reason we look all pissed off is because that idiot photographer was
driving us nuts."
