Subject: RE: Dónal Maguire in Wash DC area From: Bill D Date: 18 Jul 03 - 05:47 PM 'twas indeed a good day! The man is gregarious, generous, and a fount of wonderful songs and knowlege! (He said that he was favoring his voice due to excessive use..*grin*...but it sure filled the room just fine!) We enjoyed his visit very much. He jokes that he has an offer to sing in N.Y again in 24 years...but I suspect that it won't be 'quite' that long, if certain people have their way. |
Subject: RE: Dónal Maguire in Wash DC area From: Fortunato Date: 18 Jul 03 - 10:38 AM Donal did a fine job last night. Great singing and very nice mandolin and guitar as well. I also, by chance, had an opportunity to have a chat and a pint with him and Bill Day at The Royal Mile in the afternoon, and we many laughs, a wonderful fellow really. We hope he travels back this way soon. |

Subject: RE: Dónal Maguire in Wash DC area From: Liam's Brother Date: 14 Jul 03 - 07:18 PM Donal Maguire, who was last in the States about 20 years ago, will be at South Street Seaport Museum tomorrow (Tuesday, 15 July) for a concert with The New York Packet starting at 6 PM. He'll be at a session hosted by All-Ireland fiddle champ Brian Conway on Wednesday (16 July) at Dunne's Pub, Shapham Place, White Plains, NY starting at 7:30 PM. Originally from Drogheda, was a student of the late Ewan MacColl. He is a fine mandolin and banjo player. So, if you're near Washington or New York, you know where to go. I'll be with Donal in White Plains. All the best, Dan Milner |

Subject: RE: Dónal Maguire in Wash DC area From: Noreen Date: 14 Jul 03 - 04:27 PM You lucky people! Have a wonderful time, and say hello to the man for me. Perhaps you could allow him the facility of contributing to the Ewan MacColl weekend thread as I'm sure there are a few things he'd like to add :0) |
