Got a postcard from my local concert venue advertising an appearance by "Paddy Maloney and the Chieftains".

I was surprised not only by wee Paddy separating his name from the group's - when did he start doing that? - (rather like "Ronnie Drew and the Dubliners" or "Paul McCartney and the Beatles"), but also by the photo which showed only three people: Paddy, Matt Molloy, and Kevin Conneff.

I know Martin Fay retired some time ago, and of course Derek Bell is dead, but what about the other fiddler (the tall one, is it Sean Keane?) Are the Chieftains a trio these days?

Slainte,
Michael
