I did sing, MudGuard! I happened to sit down right next to the organiser, who noticed me, introduced himself and said he'd give me a turn, so I couldn't really say no :-)
They were all very welcoming and friendly. And it was after dinner, in the pub (Spailpin Fanac). There is usually one special guest, who sings a bit more than the rest, who take turns. The guest was Mandy Murphy, whom I hadn't heard of, but she had a very good voice. She made me a compliment afterwards, which was nice.

It was a good night, with many styles of singing and songs. I was surprised to hear people actually speak (and sing!) Irish, which doesn't happen a lot in Cork City.
