Got to play with Paddy Keenan today!

Post by MandoMark »

Paddy and John Walsh played a show here in Prescott AZ last night. My wife and my parents (in town visiting) attended and had a wonderful time, even though Paddy was having a heck of a time with his pipes, due to the dryness.

This morning, after dropping my folks off at the shuttle, I got a phone call from a friend... He mentioned that they had invited Paddy and John over for breakfast and a bit of music, and did I want to join? Silly question. I grabbed my mandolin and whistle and headed over.

Paddy didn't feel like risking his pipe woes, so they stayed in the car... He did bring in his low whistle tho, and participated in a few tunes.

It was a fantastic experience to play with Paddy and John, and they are both wonderful gents. Good breakfast and good craic.
