Subject: RE: BS: Who is in Co. Kerry?
Kerry is lovely, I've a soft spot for it and my pals in Listowel. There's some fab sessions around Listowel, and a great literary centre (John B Keane centre). The harp and lion usually has sessions, can't remember what night, go in and ask Stephen the landlord what nights, and where - he usually has a core of musicians who organise the session, but chat em up and ask if you can join in with them. John B Keane pub has sessions as does the Listowel arms. There's a few sessions out Finuge way and futher. Ask the locals, you'll get the gen on what's going on.

Good sessions in Ennis, and Doolin. Well worth a visit is the Burren area too.

Oh and the bog centre just outside Listowel on the Tralee road has sessions too - they do a fab Sunday lunch too. Just bring your grappling hooks to get a hold on it! Food mountains!

Dingle is a must, as is the Connor pass - great views of the ring of Kerry. Drive around the dingle pennisula and see the Skellig islands, always reminds me of a dragon going into the sea.

You'll have a fab time Shambles!

Regards

Ella
