My husband and I are planning a trip (our first) to Ireland, the last 2 weeks of October. We will be flying into Shannon, and plan on staying in Bed and Breakfasts, none scheduled ahead - leaving us free to go as we please.   Music in Ireland is top priority for us. Where, near Shannon, or within an easy drive are key Music Spots for us: pubs, any other venues.    I know there are lots of Irish out there. I beg your wisdom........    Thank you!!
