The Salt Lake Piping Club will hold it's first tionól of the new year on Saturday, February 26th. Things will get going arount 2:00 in the afternoon, and will likely go to the small hours of the morning. We're pushing for as many of the locals to make it out as possible, but if anyone happens to be passing through around that time, feel free to join us. Should be a mighty party afterwards by all accounts! big grin See you there!

Except that there is no longer any Irish music played at Piper Down. The musicians eventually grew weary of the juke box and other bands warming up when they were trying to session. So most of them have moved up the road to the Republican instead. Monday nights are still great for the music - just gotta look a few short blocks north.

Just an update - the Republican session is still going strong. Seems like we've had a recent rash of fellow C&F visits as well which is always great! Feel free to drop us a line anytime you're in town.
