The Rocky Road to Dublin...

A late morning and a quick stop at Tullamore on our way to Dublin City! We performed at Whelans Pub opening for No Crows, a crew of accomplished musicians from Sligo. Two fantastic fiddle players, guitar, cello, mandolin and bass. www.nocrows.net. We really enjoyed their show, and now are enjoying their CD in the car.

Next day... Guinness factory. The highlight of the tour was Dave from Dublin, who we met in the lineup for the free pint. We sat down with him and he crammed more stories into a pint of Guinness than we thought was possible, including a Canadian story made up to show us how to do it. Full of craic, he was.


Stout of the Day: We can't get away from it.
