Nice to see the public get so close to Shane, it adds a lot of emotion to the event. In America, the public would be barricaded off from the procession.

I often think the same...but whether they know it or not they are documenting history and allowing people like us to see these moments...moments that would otherwise be lost to just words and stories. It will give generations a chance to see the beauty in Shane and the beauty of the Irish people ...for that I am grateful.

I’m only 22 and I find the amount of phones out to record just awful. I understand wanting to capture the moment but I do believe in time and place and just don’t think a funeral is an appropriate place to whip out a camera or phone. I understand he’s a celebrity and admired person, but I just find it disrespectful the amount of phones pointed at the coffin. Leave it to the old media to cover as they have years of experience Curious to hear others thoughts

I'd say he wasn't into material things or looks. I know it's not common as there are so many plastic filled ppl and filler filled people and people parading thier wealth but I'd hazard a guess that he was more down to earth than all that. Hence the cheap looking wicker casket.
