Hi Christy.
We had the Furey’s in Athlone last week as part of their final year of gigs. I first encountered them like I did yourself in the early 70’s, when we were all young and innocent !!!!!. Eddie still banging out the songs and giving the Bodhran a lash. I was wondering to myself had you ever gone on stage with them ?
Took a trip to Vicar Street on Monday night to hear Imelda May. One of the Doormen said to me “ sure Christy is not here tonight”. Can’t figure out why he would say that to me !!!!!!.
She put on a wonderful show of Songs and stories, and a great insight into the origin of some of her songs.……..it seemed like all of her neighbours and friends were in the room.
Roll on next week , when normal service resumes back in HQ.
I’m sure you are already busy in the workroom.
Ride on.
