Thread Name: When Did You First Hear John Prine??
Subject: RE: When Did You First Hear John Prine??
We moved to live a few miles from Kinvara, near Galway, a little over a year ago. First night there, we were fairly wrecked by 11 p.m., having been moving furniture all day. Nonetheless, having promised to meet some friends for a traditional music session that night, we drove into town. As we headed into the agreed pub, we met all our musician friends heading OUT, carrying cases, music finished...! They were heading across the road to another pub where some guy called John Prine was jamming with some friends... My wife was delighted - and I'd no idea who he was!

Regards

p.s. I've led a sheltered life, alright!
