I was only able to be there Saturday, but indeed my time spent at the Tionol was great! Mickey is a very positive and first rate instructor; a very nice gentleman. I learned a lot. Thanks Larry and Linda for your hospitality and your kindness to my wife. It will not be soon forgotten!
All the best,

Hear, hear!
Many thanks to Larry & Linda for hosting, Mickey for teaching and performing, and everyone else who helped out.

For the record, I think the hornpipe Mickey taught is called the Bel Harbour hornpipe. Its the same one Maire Ni Ghrada played when she was here. If you have a copy of the tionol recording, its the 2nd tune after Chief O'Neill's.

And I think its worming its way into my head. He certainly puts a BUNCH of triplets into his playing.

Unfortunately I couldn't get over to Larry's on Sunday as well so someone needs to tell us what transpired.
