Nice to be called a regular. I don't know if I'll make it this year. Having a Heart Cath done Friday Morning. It's a terrible thing to pass on but the Doctor is of middle east decent and not old enough to understand how much the Irish influenced his heritage. If I make it my grandson will be pushing a big guy with a Cubs cap and a green backpack full of whistles (including the Alba I recently won).
Hope springs eternal. I'd hate to miss Natalie, Gaelic Storm, Frogwater, and so many others including Celtic Keep. If I'm not there - pretend - and set out an extra glass.

Re: Milwaukee Irish Fest
Yea Nancy one of these days we'll get it right. Still looking forward the meeting you guys.
Isn't mobility great. When you finally can, you run around everywhere you've been wanting to go and then some.
I'll really miss Irish Fest this year, I've gone at least 3 days every year for five years. My grandson is having serious withdrawl over the possibility of missing "Storm" but I think we have something worked out.

Re: Milwaukee Irish Fest
Are meeting times and places set? I will be there all weekend as well and would love to get together with some C&F'ers and try out some different whistles.

Re: Milwaukee Irish Fest
Sure wish I could be there! My new favorite band, Pogey will be playing. No whistles in the band, but they put on a good show regardless!

Re: Milwaukee Irish Fest
I'll be looking forward to hanging out with some of my fellow c and f'ers. I'll bring my new Cocus Oz whistle and my Greenwood High D. Harper D too? Maybe a Low D Burke?
I'll just bring a bunch. plus a gorgeous set of highland pipes.

Re: Milwaukee Irish Fest
Well, heading out here to drive up to the Fest from Chicago. Will look for you all on Saturday eve. Should be pretty easy to find me, as I'll be wearing a tweed kilt that opens on the wrong (left) side, tan or light grey shirt, beard, glasses, and probably a tweed hat as well. I'll bring along a couple of whistles too.
Hope to see you there!
Cheers,
