Wow! This came off really nice. The Brobdingnagian Bards were at Brigit’s Garden in Ireland, playing atop this fairy mound. The tune is “Fellowship of the Ring” from our Lord of the Rings CD Memories of Middle Earth. It was a beautiful day as we played. The wind, the lush green grass. John Wilmott of […]

Why Obama for President?
I got an email today. It was a list of “Not Exactly” truths from Obama. Basically, conservative propaganda. I only skimmed it because, honestly, I didn’t care what the email had to say. If you think Clinton or McCain haven’t had just as much “not exactlys”, then I have a bridge to sell you. They’re […]

Celtic Music Is More Alive Than You’d Think
“A writer, when he’s asked to discuss his craft, ought to get up and call out in a loud voice just the names of the writers he loves… I won’t name any living writers. I don’t think it’s right.” J.D. Salinger. It was intriguing when I read that quote. Aside from Turlough O’Carolan, my Celtic […]
I’m Such a Rock Star!

Overcoming a Sore Throat to Release a New CD
I’ve had a sore throat since I got back from Ireland. I didn’t go to the doctor, because of our crappy medical system, my insurance doesn’t cover this problem (ie. We need universal health care). But that’s fine, I don’t want antibiotics in any case. So instead, I’ve made several visits to the student acupuncture […]
Things Celtic CD Release Was Purrfect Fun
