At about ten o”clock tonight, the Irish sun rose out of the Irish Sea to shine brightly – one might even say “loudly” (at times) – over McCroskys Irish Pub in Hickory, the friendly city, in NC.
The “Belfast Boys”, Adrian Rice and Alyn Mearns, played some of the great songs of Ireland, using guitar, mandolin and the souls of Irishmen everywhere.
The evening was magnificent. It was filled with good food, good music, good beer and a lot of clapping of hands and swaying of bodies, not all of them rigorously Irish, but still, mostly dedicated to a musical study of Irishology.
