Yes, I saw Dezi Donnelly & Tim Eadie on Sun night. Brill, I also saw the first 15 mins of them with Michael McGoldrick at lunchtime (we had to go off to dance). It was the first time I have seen Michael McGoldrick, great playing, but I was not impressed by him. I thought he had been to the Liam Gallagher school of charm. To me, he seemed to have a take it or leave it approach to the gig, as though he was just fitting it in between other, better, gigs. Maybe that's just me?
I thought they were better without him.
It was nice to see Pete Morton doing an impromptu spot, now that guy's got the right attitude, an all round good egg.

Cheers
