Kerry. We took the Pound road north of the farm to the Lyracrompane road. These are tiny windy roads! I was driving. Hard to believe it is a 2 lane road. We played for a couple of hours. Michael wa in fine form, pouring the whiskey, chatting &amp; singing. Jim and Mary from Albany New York were there as they are often at Flannagan&#8217;s on Monday nights. One of the best songs was Danny Boy by Eve who is one of the Aides at the home. Terrance noticed she had a lovely voice as we sang Happy Birthday and but for that she would not have sang at all. There is beauty everywhere in this country. Plenty of slides &amp; polkas and Jackie always wants to play the new ones. There were favourite songs sung in Irish &#8220;we sang it at school&#8221;. Times like these I really feel I am allowed in the inner circle to share in a rich culture. Back at the farm in the evening Jackie &amp; I had the tunes and started on a seldom heard Patrick O&#8217;Keeffe polka that was on an RTE broadcast recently.<\/p>\n<p>Listen here;<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Patrick O'Keeffe Broadcast first heard in 1960\" href=\"http:\/\/www.rte.ie\/radio\/utils\/radioplayer\/rteradioweb.html#!rii=9%3A10208245%3A1852%3A20%2D10%2D2013%3A&amp;type=radio\" target=\"_blank\">RTE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We must learn it for the festival&#8221; says Jackie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Michael Flannagan , the senior Flannagan from the Brosna pub where we play every Monday. turned 94 and Jackie,Terrance &amp; I were invited to play for his party at his seniors&#8217; home in Listowell Co.
