Charity Trad Gig on Wednesday
March 11th, 2007 Posted in Charity, Ireland, Irish trad music, Live Music, Music
The time has almost come for my trip to Lesotho at the end of April where I will be helping to renovate a school and build a playground with 15 others from Ireland. The next fundraiser for this takes place on Wednesday 14th coming with Ger Wolfe, the Fuchsia Band and more (including me on the uilleann pipes).
From www.ISPCCinAfrica.com:
On Wednesday the 14th March, we are holding a traditional music concert upstairs in the Spailpin Fanach in association with the Cork Pipers’ Club. All money raised on the night will be donated to the ISPCC and it promises to be a great night of music and song. Doors will be open from 8:30pm with music starting from 9pm. Tickets can be bought on the door and cost €10.
Performers on the night include The Fuchsia Band, back from their travels and who always put on an energetic and entertaining show; Cork singer Ger Wolfe singing some of his distinctively Cork ballads; Dan O’Callaghan, a piper from Cork who has travelled around the world playing music; Tommie Cunniffe on accordion, who is currently recording his debut album; and, last but not least, John Mitchell on flute accompanying Donal O Caoimh on the uilleann pipes.
We look forward to seeing you there!
I hope that I might see a few bloggers there who might also post the above poster on their own blogs if you wouldn’t mind?
Thanks to Pure Cork Boy for the poster design.
On another note, I’m getting my injections tomorrow for this trip. I don’t like needles.

That is a nice poster, isn’t it!
We don’t make a bad creative team!
