A beautiful weekend just past!

American visitor Bob Ralph dropped into Padraicin’s a couple of weeks and the Droighneann Donn in Spiddal the Sunday after…here some of the lovely footage that he took…Such a treat when Martina Gogan sings a song!
Another beautiful night with Dolores Keane and a mighty fine band. Her next gig is on April 6th in Donegal if you’d like to make weekend of it! …Off to tunes in An Droighneann later this eve, starting at 6pm, Steve Sweeney is away, so will be there with Ged Foley and Tony Kelly and in the company of some wonderful Spiddal folks!

Just came across this beautiful clip from 1972…just wonderful dancing and music!
…gigs this weekend…Padraicin’s tonight, Taaffe’s tomorrow and Sunday eve in Spiddal in An Droighneann, just a lovely eve for music, great songs and meeting up w friends…
what a wonderful weekend it was! Delighted to join Dolores Keane, John Faulkner and band for a concert at The Waterfront Hotel in Dungloe. A mighty night it was & the best of company…and returning to Dungloe after some 26 years was quite the trip down memory lane…




This weekend will see me return to Dungloe Co Donegal for the first time since I was there at the tender age of 16 on an ‘inter-rail tour’ with a friend; inter-rail? in Dungloe? needless to say we were mostly hitch-hiking around the West of Ireland. Teenage sense!
Well, I am very much looking forward to joining Dolores Keane and her Band this Saturday in Dungloe at The Waterfront Hotel. One of my all-time musical heroines; and it evokes memories of being in Sarah and Rita Keane’s cottage years ago; such a musical legacy; treasured memories!
