Tyler BS: Richmond Highland Games & Celtic Fest (10) RE: BS: Richmond Highland Games & Celtic Fest 29 Sep 01


Anyone happen to know of Celtic instrumental music sessions (I play whistle), or general singing sessions, in the Richmond Va vicinity?

My mother moved back to her "River City" birthplace almost a year ago and I visit her frequently but so far I've only found a contra dance (good music, but males needed for balance) and a pub "Rare Old Times" that had an Irish-style band (which offered to let me sit in with them). Even the bluegrass "session" that I went to in the "Legend Brew Co." turnrd out to be a band performance.

At the "Games" last year a performer in a local celtic band told me that the Richmond session scene now is dead! Hope it's not true.

By the way, you guys forgot to mention the unique feature of these Games- the free Clydesdale ( or was it Percheron) powered people movers!

Cheers, Tyler
