West virginia,

Mountain Mama ..

What does it mean when there are people from Cape Breton, USA, Germany, Wales and more singing along together? Music is an international language and everyone joined in the singing, no matter their country of origin.

In all, there were 19 musicians and a full house of guests. The music last night was the best yet, ditto for the guests. Thank you, St. George's Channel folks for a great time!

St. George's Channel Hall will hold their annual Hog & Hen BBQ tomorrow afternoon, Saturday, August 7, followed by Irish Pub Night with Irish music and open mic. Great food will be accompanied by great Irish music and phenomenal local talent.

The bbq will take place from 12:00 noon until 6:00, then open mic from 7:00 to midnight, music all day, if it's the same as last year. (Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.) 

It promises to be lots of fun for everyone and good craic, as the Irish say. There may be good beer from the Wolfville microbrewery again this year, I haven't heard anything about that this year.

We plan to arrive at 7 for Pub Night and Open Mic.  Come join us for a very good time!

If you have Celtic Colours tickets that you won't be able to use, let me know and I will publish it here to see if we can find someone to buy them from you.

If we can't find a buyer, please consider donating your tickets to L'Arche. The folks there tremendously enjoy the Celtic music and would very much appreciate the donation - and use - the tickets.
