I was looking forward to seeing Paul Brady, and his Arthur McBride was even longer than I remember from the lost tapes CD. but he then made a few remarks on the English and the Irish (related to what we think of the French) and it sounded a bit as if he still has an axe to grind - maybe I misunderstood his sense of humour. He then started singing all his own material, and people started leaving. I lasted about half an hour then I'd had enough. I expected more trad stuff, and of course he was entitled to sing what he wanted, I'm sure if he could have mixed in a few more trad songs he would have kept more people in their seats. I contrast this with Chris Wood's performance , which although was mostly not trad left me wanting more. Chris says he was coming down with flu at the time but I didnt notice anything amiss and his guitar work was great
