           He said, "There's magic in the fiddler's arms and there's magic in this town 
          There's magic in the dancers' feet and the way they put them down
          People smiling everywhere, boots and ribbons, locks of hair
          Laughtcr, old blue suits and Easter gowns"

We always go out of our way (well, not very far, really) to play St. Anne's Reel on July 26. My own musical "tradition" for about last 30 years, since I saw my copy of the Farmer's Almanac which lists some of the saints' days
