Subject: RE: How was your St. Patrick's gig?
Not bad at all.

An Pluiméir Ceolmhar, myself and a couple of friends (Uillean pipes, octave mandolin, concertina and flute) played our usual St. Pat's gig at the Irish Club of Belgium in the presence of the Irish Ambassador, other dignitaries and a decent scattering of Joe Public. We were on telly last year and I'm looking to see if the reporter present put us in the national newspaper this year!

The best thing was the seemingly unlimited supply of smoked Irish wild salmon on soda bread

I daresay a few more pints will be drunk and tunes played today and tomorrow...!

Peace
