Top Celtic Bands of the Year

My weekends fly by too quickly. This past one, I was at I-Con Science Fiction Convention on Long Island. It was the first Sci Fi convention I ever went to. This year, I was named Performance Guest of Honor. That honor really rang home in the ceremony when I was presented a plaque for all […]
