Friday Night...

Brittingham's Irish Pub... Sit down dinner at 7 PM. Band at 8:30 or 9 (Killing Thyme)

Sat Night...

Finnegan's Wake... Barley Juice (Jimmy's Band) starts at 10 PM
Brittingham's... Dinner ? and The Shanty's at 9 PM

If you like a "college" type dance club/bar with an Irish themed bar downstairs, Finnegans is for you. LOTS of 20-something type kids

If you prefer a sit down show with waitresses and a slightly older crowd (anything from 20's to 70's with the average person probably in their 30's), then Brittinghams is for you.

Steve and Kelly and I will be at Brit's while Magnus and others will be at Finnegans. You can't go wrong either way! Call the shop if you want to join us for dinner at Brits so we can add you to the reservation.

We had a GREAT time sitting and talking at Brit's last night with Steve from FK and Robert from RK. The band was good, the dinner was good and the company was great! We had 8 peole in kilts at a table of 12.

It was good to finally meet and have a chance to sit down with you 2. I have new respect for both of your solid kilts (tartans are still better ;) ).

Safe trip home to both "Canadian Eh" and "Canadian B". :smile:

I had a wonderful time last night, great company of people to be with and a lot of laughs.
I had a great day offroading in the Pine Barrens in New Jersey. Going through water up to the windsheild, lots of mud flying all over. I impressed alot of folk with my Kia Sportage and of course my Camo kilt (But nobody saw me! go figure,
Thanks Rocky, Kelly and Steve and all the kilted brethern.
Cheers

I'm still going to Finnigan's Wake tonight if anyone hasn't yet reached their full drunktitude for the weekend. I'll be leaving in about 15-20 minutes.

[Jimmy Carbomb]

And Ma-a-a-a-a-agnus, I'm ecstatic that you came to Finnigan's! That Pittsburgh Kilt that you have is AWESOME! The sheep won't see you approaching with that Camo!!!

Robert, it was GREAT that you made it and we met-up. The later sets that you were fortunate enough to miss got very "energetic".

The Irish Boxing Team that showed-up, danced and sang... also left very drunk and rowdy (shock, shock). The last I saw of them, they left in an extended taxi with a group of ladies that were celebrating an upcoming wedding. What a country!

Not a typical gig at Finnigan's Wake since the crowd was VERY "Irished-up" with the singing and dancing... and drinking. Quite fun from where I was standing!!!

Thanks for coming along guys! Hopefully you got to meet the Irish Voice photographer (Tommy), the boxers from Ireland, the band, and the variety of guests that came. It was an ecclectic mix that just seemed to gel and make the entire evening a huge party!

Sorry I had to miss out on Friday night. From the sound of things, I missed a good time. By the time I got out of work, it would have been about 1:30 by the time I got down there.
