Gotta go for the concensus..learn afew songs...as stated with the Chieftains..great band and always will be, but even they knew songs had to come around, and when Kevin doesnt sing, they always have a special guest or two at a live show to do afew songs...go for it..whats the harm...even if its just 5 or 6 songs that everyone loves...(or atleast knows)......Slainte!
