Ennis trad fest - anyone else?
So, I'm really only posting this because, after the usual trauma of actually booking the travel, I can't even get myself to think about accommodation (oh, I just have ...).
Anyone got any idea where I can stay? Any other chiffers going?

Re: Ennis trad fest - anyone else?
Yeah, I did think of that ... I may even do it. If I did, TBH I'd be more worried about the instruments than about me - I'm hardy enough - kip anywhere, me.

At the top of the link you just gave, loic, it gives the dates for the 2010 festival. What more do you need?

Re: Ennis trad fest - anyone else?
Ah, the programme ... I hadn't thought of that (I mean it). I've never been to the Ennis TradFest before and just thought I'd turn up and see what it's about. I'm guessing it will be mad.

The program was launched last week (it was in the Clare champion anyway). Nothing I'd get particularly excited about but YMMV
My brain hurts

Re: Ennis trad fest - anyone else?
Would any of them be led by Antaine O'Faracháin?
