Brilliant time had by all in Estes over the weekend.
Great town and vibe. Huge crowds attending Celtic Fest activities and what a party both Friday and Saturday night at Lonigan’s. Plans to do it all again next year are already in place. Book a room in Estes for next year and you won’t be sorry. If you’re in Estes pop into Lonigan’s and tell Dave the Indulgers say Hi.
The Indulgers were joined for a set by Martin O’Malley (Gov. Maryland) along with his all-star band that included the Gov. of Virginia, Tim Kaine and Gov. of Arizona, Janet Napolitano and even a quick few words from Rev. Jesse Jackson. Great night of Irish spirit in Fado.
Hi everyone! It is with great sadness that we must inform you that tonight will be the last night Pogue Mahone’s will be open. This has been an incredibly difficult decision to make but one that we really felt we had to for our family. We appreciate all of your support over the past two years and we will never forget any of you. So if you get this e-mail in time, meet us down at Pogue’s tonight for a drink as we say farewell. If you don’t get it in time, thanks again for everything and we hope to see you all around soon! Carl, Kelly, & Jack O’Boyle
Lots of excitement in Denver this past week. Lots of the movers and shakers of the modern world. Sightings, gatherings and the like. At one point The Indulgers were joined onstage at Fado by four State Govenors and the Rev. Jesse Jackson. Security was tight and with the journalists flashing the cameras, the scene for an Irish pub was surreal in many ways. Management was in full control with so many secret service chaps, we all felt very safe that no-one would steal a pint on the night and that asking for the house darts might be a very bad idea. We also played over at the Celtic Tavern as the Wild Mountain Celts for our pals from New Jersey. It’s fair to say that every politican we meet enjoys singing.
Thanks to the staff of Gov. Martin O’Malley (Maryland) and Congressmen Bill Pascrell & Frank Pallone (New Jersey) for our two days out and about at the DNC. A historic week in the city of Denver.
What a finish to the week. THE TASTE OF COLORADO was wonderful today. Thank you all for coming to the shows.
Sample a wee taste of Ireland in Evergreen area.
More details coming soon to the Shamrocker Colorado Pubs Page. Lovely logo and name. Former Fado and Casey’s barman, Neale will be on hand. Come see The Wild Mountain Celts this friday at 8pm christening the new place.
Sure to be a mountain HIT, the Trinity.
A truly honest to God Dubliner, the father of Irish folk music and it’s heritage, a great man. A few years ago while looking a criss (woven Irish belt) I had the man himself send on onehe’d found at his home. That he could send it to me, a stranger in America, was a high point in life I won’t ever forgot. RIP Ronnie Drew, there’s no replacing you.
