Subject: RE: Favourite Performances You Were Lucky to See
Went to see DeDannan back some time ago. The place was at an Irish bar in Downtown Boston (Black Rose) they had a sort of elevated stage area. After the first set was done they said they'd like to bring out some friends to do a bit of singing, out walks Lou Killen after a couple of songs out comes the Waterson crowd. A lot of the Irish musicians in the crowd weren't impressed but for some of us it was heaven. Later in the evening I went to a music party at a friends house turns out that friend was also close to most of DeDannan. They all got to playing & singing with some of the others that had been in the crowd, most sat out or sat by but likes of a few like Jerry O'Sullivan & Seamus Connelly & a couple others. God what an evening, it was like a lifetime of music squeezed into a moment. Barry
