I’m happy to announce the sighting of two new Celtic music podcasts in the podosphere. First up is the Grinning Beggar’s Celtic Podcast. This one was introduced to me my Stephen who compiles several Celtic music podcast playlists. If you ever want to know what song you heard when and who performed it, his website […]

How Was Your Halfway to St. Patrick’s Day ?
There must be some subconscious thought dancing in my brain this morning. I turned on Gael Day by The Elders for Kenzie and me to listen to. Lo and behold, it’s also the latest album review posted on the Celtic MP3s Music Magazine website. I quite enjoyed the CD myself, especially their rendition of “Galway […]
Quotes
Dear Marc, Just wanted to say that I wore my “Kilted For Her Pleasure” t-shirt (with my kilt, of course) to the McClain Highland Festival in Carlisle, PA over Labor Day weekend. Don’t know that it drove any traffic to the web site, but I did get a good number of interested comments and questions. […]
Hobbit CD Music Is Done!
I am finally officially able to say that the music for the hobbit CD is totally done. Now I’m working with Nikki O’Shea to finish the graphics and liner notes. Stay tuned!
Catching Up on Celtic CD Reviews
I gotta say I’m pretty excited. We are nearly caught up on all the Celtic CD reviews at the Celtic Music Magazine. We were two years behind at the beginning of the year. Then I asked for reviewers. Now we have just a dozen left to be reviewed. Too cool! A big thanks to all […]
Can Kickstarter Fund a Marc Gunn Tour?
I read some interesting blogs over the past few days. Artists like Amanda Palmer and Neil Gaiman are organizing tours using fan funding sites like Kickstarter. I started fan funding my music back in 2004. The Brobdingnagian Bards’ album Memories of Middle Earth was funded entirely by Nagians. However, I never thought of a practical […]
Hobbit Music Re-Mastered
I finished remastering Don’t Go Drinking With Hobbits today. Now it’s time to check the sound and make sure everything is great. Cross your fingers.
Sherwood Celtic Festival in Central Texas, September 24-25th
Before the Texas Gunn Runners jump up and say, “Are you gonna be there?” The answer is “no”. I won’t. I was one of the first people the festival asked to attend and for Celtic band advice. They picked many of my favorite Celtic music artists. It also turns out I’m glad I declined since […]
Top 5 Regrets About DragonCon 2011
I had an amazingly awesome time at DragonCon, but whenever you plan something, it never quite works like you expect it to. This time, the whole weekend turned out better because my family came out. Yet, there’s still a few things I wish could’ve happened. I wish the Bedlam Bards could’ve made it. The Firefly […]
Sunday and the Rest of DragonCon 2011
As I said, we awoke way too early to attend The Signal Podcast. Not only was I playing music for the show, but I also had a wee part in one of their audio dramas. The pirate accent went over great, especially since my voice was pretty much gone from the night before. A growling […]
