He will be the fiddler in a three-piece Irish band. We'll miss him in the Klezmer band but Memsahib and I are very proud of him. It's good money and a great chance to live in another culture for a while. troll |

My brother in law did some time as a jazz muso there, found it fascinating, but overstayed his visa, and ended up in chokey, waiting for a large wedge from his sister. Not the best officials in the world to mess with! Skipjack |

15 Mar 02 - 10:39 PM (#669965) Subject: RE: BS: Young Fiddler goes to Japan From: michaelr Troll - you mean to tell me Disney have their ugly claws into Japan now, too? AND they dare feature Irish music??? The gall, the unmitigated nerve! That said, best of luck to young Maltin, the Ilish fiddrel... ;-) And Masato - that's the first time I've actually seen you say something, other than just provide links. Where are you located? (if you don't mind) Cheers, Michael |

Martin will be part of a trio in a waterfront "pub" (the park is on Tokyo Bay). They are opening one in Singapore next year I think. M.I.C...K.E.Y...O.U.S.O.B. troll |
