I'm honoured to be invited to play Richard. Those lessons you gave me years ago in Longford have finally paid off!

I got back last evening after attending the show just on the Saturday. The steel playing was as good as I have heard in the years that I have been attending and the house band was probably as good as I have heard anywhere.

Well done everyone, and nice to see Sarah Jory back again.
