Only in Northern Ireland can you talk about the delights of veda/soda/tatey bread and others know what you're on about...

Only in Northern Ireland can rock legends like ELO be banned from performing as according to god fearing councillors they are all devil worshippers

Ballymena is described by some observers as being at the heart of Northern Ireland's equivalent of the Bible Belt. The Electric Light Orchestra were banned from playing in the township of Ballymena with Ian Paisley's Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) dominated council reasoning that their appearance would attract "the four Ds Drink, Drugs, Devil and Debauchery". Further the popular romantic drama Brokeback Mountain was banned from scening in the town, as was a performance an impersonator of comic Roy 'Chubby' Brown,. It should be remembered that this does not necessarily reflect the overall views of the town's population
