Public · Hosted by Samuels Public Library
Online Event
Join us for a special “Halfway to St. Patrick’s Day” celebration incorporating a mixture of lecture and song performances telling the story of three young Irishmen - Paddy, Tom and Liam Clancy -who emigrated to the United States in the 1950's. Christopher Shannon, Associate Professor and Chair of the History Department at Christendom College will share how these three poor struggling actors went from drinking and singing old Irish songs for their own amusement to appearing on the Ed Sullivan Show and performing at Carnegie Hall. The three were instrumental in starting the revival of traditional Irish music in the bohemian literacy circles of New York's Greenwich Village during the 1950's and 1960's, eventually producing the likes of the Chieftans and Riverdance. This is a Zoom presentation. Register for this event online.

Wups no I won't. Apparently while they were practising they figured out it could not be done over Zoom at all, so those of us who registered will get a link to see what they recorded. I will share the link if anybody is interested. When I get it.

thanks...

we are still lights years away from having working out all the bugs in virtual "reality"...

our state office would have video conferencing where the first 15 minutes was spent with the OT guys getting us all on line and it would still go buggy... lol but it sure beat the heck out of driving for hours for a one hour meeting ...

phone conferencing worked better but for the limit on participants

right now youtube will not allow anyone to view it, even though the link came from the library... I sent them an email, but it's early yet for them to open it
