Subject: RE: How was your St. Patrick's Day?
Hiya Mary,

a really great day, great music and lots of fun with the gang (though it was "work" as well). We were playing in Scruffy Murphy's, which doesn't do live music as a rule, so I was a little apprehensive when setting up the PA, etc., yesterday morning. Needn't have worried, the place was packed from 3 pm on and lots of friends arrived to cheers us on and play along with us.

I wish I had brought something to record with, as there was some great music from Chris Lucas, Berni on fiddle, Tony on guitar, Lynda, Susan and Rose on vocals, etc., but as well as playing/singing I had to supervise the sound as well, so it was a bit hectic at times. We started at 4:30 pm and finished up just before 1:00 am. Folks were singing along, dancing, walzing (and this was all the "older" crowd!). They want us back next weekend! Some pictures are here:
