Me to, some of the best nights of my life spent at McGann's and McDermotts over the years listening to Blackie, Cyril, Eoghan and Geraldine. I was absolutely devastated to hear the news about Cyril earlier this month who has left us far too soon. A true legend I Irish music, sessions will never to the same without him. RIP Cyril, I love you man. 🙏 💔
Thanks for uploading this! Brings back some happy memories from McDermott’s. Have seen Dubhlinn twice there and Blackie (pipes) and Cyril (bouzouki) once in McGann’s just across the bridge from McDermott’s. The set they’re playing here is The Happy Aunt / The Road to Errogie / Shifing Gravel (perhaps more commonly known as Good Morning to Your Nightcap). It’s included in the album Live in McDermott’s by Foolin’ in Doolin, feat. Blackie, Cyril and a banjo player whose name eludes me. Grand stuff indeed!
Wow this is from April 26, 2023 me and my wife were there and shared a table with some wonferful folks from Louisiana as we are from Florida we stayed till past midnight and had a 5am flight what a night
And we were there too, sitting just to your left with a couple of musicians from Toronto. What a brilliant night it was! Did you stay for the singsong after? (BTW it was me that sang Leave Her Johnny).
It was a great night! Ahh, I don't think I stayed after this song! I thought they said they were done and I had to get up early the next day. I wish I stayed though!
