Son of Gnome is zooming over the pond tomorrow to land in New Orleans some time later (or is it earlier - I could never figure these things out...) Anyhow - He reckons he will not have much free time as he is attending a seminar (HA! I say) but he would be interested in things folky, any contacts or any other free advice.

Anyone there?

Cheers

Don't know much about N.O., except O'Flarhety's Pub in the Quarter. Some great Celtic music there!

GO to O' Flahertys on Toulouse. Ask for Sharon Armstorng frae Scotland and tell her that Irish Mike from Dundee sent you.

I was recently in New Orleans and went into O'Flaherty's. Good pub. I already had plans for that evening, so I was upset to find out that Tommy Makem was playing there that night. I would have loved to have seen him.
