Subject: RE: Celtic music and its influence levels..
Slough, Berkshire,England,-----Every Monday Night !! HUGE amounts of Celtic influence !! Where?? In a pub called "The Herschel Arms ". !! This must be the best Irish Music session outside of Ireland !! Every week, you can listen to ,thanks to landlord Tom King, a regular ensemble of musicians, some Irish,some of Irish descent,& some with no Irish connections whatever, numbering around 10-20,and sometimes many more !! Apart from the "regulars",there are often visiting musicians----in the last 18 months, the pub has seen Paddy Keenan-Tommy O"Sullivan--Mike McGoldrick--Grace Kelly-Jarlath Henderson-Harriet Earis--Colman Connolly--Marc Guilloux( from Paris !! )--Paul Jutkewicz--Mick O"Connor--Luke Daniels-the list goes on !! Even two fine musicians from Toulouse !!All passionate about Celtic music,be it Irish,Scottish,or Breton !!So--!! Where are you gonna go on a Monday night in England ?? Why,the Herschel Arms in Slough,of course !!!
