Thanks for the kind words, Kendall, WYS, Joe, Mick 'n' Rick. I just got home from the Bethlehem Celtic Classic Festival. Now that was awesome. I got to listen to Clandestine, Morning Star, the John Whelan Band, the Glengharry Bhoys, Raglan Road, the mighty Alastair Fraser and two young lassies from the Orkneys in Scotland _ the Wrigley sisters. Janie and Jennifer on fiddle and guitar. I'd never seen them before and they were truly brilliant. I'd seen and played with all the other folks before, and they are brilliant too, but this was my first time seeing these girls and I was blown away by their musicianship and stage presence. Keep an eye out for them.

Seamus and I did some "pickin' and grinnin'" in my living room, and that was nice, but, I'd love to see him in concert.

Thanks, Joe Offer, for the website link. I've heard some of Seamus' music on the radio, and based on the reactions above, I think I'll take in the November 9 concert.

Did I mis title this thread? Seems like it hasn't drawn the attention Seamus deserves.

Click here to get to the Seamus Kennedy Website for information.
this thread describes the CD, "A Smile and a Tear" - there isn't any information about it on the Website that I found.
