My condolences Peter, and to her family. I was just watching the you tube videos last week thinking how wonderful that you had helped to bring her to the fore first with the album for us all to hear her and now videos as well. In a way that makes her live forever. You were a great team. May she rest in peace.

So sorry to hear that Peter. May her soul rejoice in its new flight, and may she long be remembered as her great tunes continue to delight people here in this life.
Thank you for introducing me to her music, and for being a good friend to her. I was thinking of you both just a few days ago as we passed through Miltown Malbay.

Kitty was laid to rest with her husband Josie and son Joe outside Coore church yesterday. The church was packed with friends and neighbours, so packed I couldn't get back in after I stepped out for a few minutes to get a few things organised. Inside Dympna O Sullivan played lovely sweet music during the mass, Tim Dennehy sang and Noel Hill played Caoineadh na tri Mhuire, I played A Stor mo Chroi at the graveside, the air Junior Crehan played for Josie and Kitty herself played for Joe there and was joined by Josephine Marsh, Mick Kinsella and Brid O Donohue for Hughie Traver's jig and reel, which Kitty learned from Joe, I never saw her play them without a tear coming to her eye.
After a meal in the Armada Hotel in Spanish Point we had some more music: Jackie Daly, Claire Keville, Susie Cox, Lorraine O'Brien, Eoin O'Neil, Quentin Cooper, John Joe Tuttle, Kitty's son in law Chris, Christy McNamara and myself played for a few hours. We had t ogive out a bit to Jacqui McCarthy for not bringing the concertina, but that's the way.
I like to think Kitty would have approved of the send off.
Thanks to everybody for condolences, e-mails and messages of sympathy. We have our memories and a bit of Kitty's music to hold on to.

Another of the generation that knew what the music was really all about has moved on.
Give our condolences to the family for us. Her music touched more of us than she ever knew.

Hey Pete,
Your friend is not dead, she lives on in you and all those whose lives she touched,
through her music and your efforts she is immortal,
I am sad for your loss,
but in my opinion, she has left a lasting legacy, for which i am sure she would be proud, not only as a musician but as a giving and sharing person,
You certainly do her justice as a friend, and though she has passed on to the session in the sky, in the ears, hearts and minds of those around the world who have heard her passion in music, she live on,
If only we could all leave such a legacy for generations to follow,
Again my sincere condolences
David

Oh, Peter that was lovely. The two of you have brought me ever so much joy and inspiration over the last few years and have kept me company for many hours in the car, in the kitchen, and on the tractor.
Thank you for being such a true friend and champion for her, and for sharing both of your music with us so it can live on.
Blessings to you all and I'm sorry for your loss.

Deja Fu: The sense that somewhere, somehow, you've been kicked in the head exactly like this before.
I just received the following (I asked) from the producer of the Lyric FM 'Gracenotes' program, about the Bantry Masters of Tradition concerts:
http://www.rte.ie/lyricfm/trad/
where the shows are also stored for a week
the broadcast can be heard on Lyric FM or through the website at:Eoin Brady, in an e-mail wrote:Just to let you know that the recording of Kitty Hayes from the Masters of Tradition Festival 2007 will be broadcast next Sunday at 6pm on Grace Notes on RTE lyric fm as part of our second programme of highlights from the festival.

I tried to listen, but to do so had to install Real Player. However, the present version of RP is extraordinarily obnoxious--it's crammed with junkware, crapware & spyware, and kept insisting on doing tons of things I neither asked nor wanted it to do, and refused to do the one thing I wanted. To add insult to injury, my firewall shows that it's trying to phone home--again unasked--every minute or so.
And I am damned if I'm going to tolerate all that just. I have uninstalled it forthwith.

So does anyone know of a non-abusive alternative for this, which will still play the above?

And now there was no doubt that the trees were really moving - moving in and out through one another as if in a complicated country dance. ('And I suppose,' thought Lucy, 'when trees dance, it must be a very, very country dance indeed.')
