I grew up and continue to live in Alexandria, Va. I have fond memories from the 70's when my parents and grandparents used to go to Matt Kanes in Washington DC to see Butch & Maeve. I was only 10 years old, but remember them coming home late at night very happy. Family lore is that one night my grandmother, who was from Lietrim, got up and danced an Irish jig. I've dug up the old copy of "A Night at the Keg with Our Irish Friends" album, digitized it, and have been listening to it daily. My young kids of 4 & 6 love it! A tip of the hat and a drink to you, Butch & Maeve--your work continues to bring joy on earth...
