Our band gets a nod on Good Morning Texas for St Paddy's Day, and we finally got copies. The news crew was mostly there to interview the Tipperary Inn's executive chef for St. Paddy's Day, but they threw a shot of us in for flavor...the entire show had some of the crowd dancing and the like.

Who's that playing the whistle? And is that a Sweetheart? (Not the guy playing the whistle. The whistle.)

They took a lot of shots...but I guess they were just looking for a small bit of "flavor" :) If you look closely, when they've got closeup of the harp, and my fingers are moving, I'm not even playing that tune...we were playing something a lot slower during that clip.

No fair! You are supposed to get a full 15 minutes of fame! :lol:

Ger the Rigger?

Very nice, Greg! The same thing has happened to me several times, with just a few seconds on air. Spreading your 15 minutes of fame over 40 years isn't such a bad thing. :-)

Tell us something.: "Tell us something" hits me a bit like someone asking me to tell a joke. I can always think of a hundred of them until someone asks me for one. You know how it is. Right now, I can't think of "something" to tell you. But I have to use at least 100 characters to inform you of that.

Greg, You cut the video too short. Later, after the chef makes some culcannon, it goes back to the pub and there's a slightly longer shot of the band, and shots of kids dancing and stuff.
