Yes, it's been a while, and I'd have to admit that I have been pre-occupied with matters domestic! We have a beautiful new Grandchild called Alfie, and everyone is thrilled with his arrival ......... Our recent show at Killoughternane Schoolhouse was another roaring success, thanks to the huge support from Jim Quirke and his team of helpers. As you can see from the photo, string-band Music can be a lot of fun !!!!! We also had a ball playing for Frank and Karen's Birthday bash [ 80th and 50th ] in Fallon and Byrnes in Dublin, and sincere thanks goes to Paddy Kiernan on 5-String Banjo and Guitar for stepping in at short notice. I'm off to Raleigh in North Carolina this week for showcase Gigs at IBMA, and I'll report from there
. Check our website for details, and talk soon ? Regards, Niall.
