Somebody seems to have cleared out the other 4 or so St Patricks day suggestions threads for some reason

Thanks

Maybe in the uk but most of my gigs I wouldn't be asked to play much trad music. The pogues or dubliners maybe but siege of ennis I've played once and that was for an american getting married in a castle in Co. Clare! Mundy is still
very popular though as are the sawdoctors but they are more contemporary folk than trad.

Wot--no Whisky in the Jar?

I thought this was an Irish Party

I dont do Irish events but would think you might need some traditional stuff like Danny Boy, Star of the County Down, If your Irish, Molly Malone and of course--the Dubliners---if theres older people there?

Tell a lie --many years ago I did an Irish Wedding in Finchley---blinding booking --using several of the above tracks.

HOWEVER l leave the experts to pronounce

Maybe you ought to have the music for The Siege of Ennis as a safety precaution

Yes it makes a difference--Ireland or England.

Reading the thread again makes you wonder---Irish people at the party--so what does that mean exactly

I have just taken a private gig for the summer in a Catholic Church Social Club in County Kilburn

It did make me think back to my my youth working in that area as a 60s Mobile Disco--theres Irish people who have come over for the party--people who have lived in England having emigrated, people who have grown up in the Community with the influences---a whole mixture really with probably different tastes. Be prepared for a big mixture.

Glad im not doing that gig--- at least in Kilburn they will get what I give em and tell em --cos im in charge of the Dancing --which I have been told is not to be any Irish

I got a feeling this link might get deleted but this song contains NO swearing at all.

My fiancées family (being irish and all that) ask for this all the time

What about tracks for Northern Irish music - anything different than above?

You definitely need to play:
Galway Girl - Sharon Shannon & Steve Earle
