Thanks for the song list. I have several St Patty's shows this week. This morning's show was rescheduled because of norovirus.

Good luck!

I'm working my regular gig at a country club. they decorate a little...not much.


BUT! I play on a St Pattys Day float for a large parade downtown.

Been doing it for years. We have a truck, generator...the whole works! I THINK it was lots more fun before we all began worrying about our blood pressure (LOL)!

I'll be playing tenor banjo, piano and a unique double-neck mandolin.
