Charlie's Party This Weekend!

Hello All!

Last weekend at Keiran's was definitely interesting. Saturday was a LOT of fun, second set started off hot and went up from there. In fact , there didn't end up being a third set, we went long in one and two and then the place emptied, as it does down there, and we spent the last half hour talking with the people who had come down to see US. Thank you and thank you!!!! ( sorry about the no Bob Seger, hee-hee )

I think the funniest moment of the night was trying to explain to one gentleman why I didn't eat White Castle. He couldn't understand why anyone would not. Hmmmm....

I did manage to fall ONTO the stage most spectacularly, over the monitor, onto drinks , most un-dignified!!! ( never happened back when I was a drinking women! ) I was ok, if scraped and somewhat bruised....

Ah well, onto next weekend.....

We are at Charlie's and I want to invite ALL of you to come down. I am leaving for New York and Boston on Sunday , for two weeks , to shoot some music videos with my Hidden Variable Band ( me, Malena Teves and Chris Ewen , more over at www.lorraineamalena.com ) and I think Saturday ought to be the official Bon Voyage Party!!! So it will be a month, nearly until we are back at Charlie's again, and we are going to have some FUN.

I love all the places we play, and all of the people that we meet, but there is truly something special about Charlie's. I am not sure what it is, but it has always seemed to me, that it is everything an Irish Pub ought to be. It's like playing in our living room, only we have bartenders for the evening. Everyone ends up being friends by the end of the night.

I think some of it is the owners, Chuck and Judy. They are hands on type owners and it is a labour of love for them. As likely as not, you will find them in the audience, on any given night, having just as fine a time as anyone. They treat us so very well, from making sure the popcorn is hot for me when I come in, to offering a room at the Inn if either Paul or I are too tired to drive home. ( or in Paul's case WHISKY!!! Just kidding, Paul is a pro...) Some places are all about money, and I feel like window dressing, but at Charlie's, I feel like part of the family.

As will you, if you come down. We will make sure of it.

So, please, do come by this weekend, and wish me luck, I am a little nervous, and would love the moral support! ( I will , once again, have some new hair on Saturday, hee-hee, you know me! )

Love and Irish, Lorraine

I'm glad to hear that you two are in good hands at Charlie's. One of these days I'll come through town and stay at the inn.

You really ought to, the town is SO lovely, and the Inn from the 1800's, restored completely, and the prices are not out of this world. You should bring the family,, or at least your wife, but the Pub, at least in the early part of the evening, is very kid friendly, we love having kids come down, they enjoy it so and are not afraid to show it.

It's a great weekend getaway, you can go out on the river, walk along and shop, go riding, antiquing, and then there is US.

I have a working vehicle again (a Buick land yacht with an AMAZING number of controls and lights, very 1980s), so Saturday looks doable.

Are we being piratical?
