An interesting short film about Tara
Save Tara Petition
I don't honestly know that petitions accomplish very much but it can't hurt. In a nutshell, the Irish Government is runnning a road through the area of the Hill of Tara, possibly the most important archaeological site in Ireland. On their second day of digging they came upon a henge the size of three football fields, but are determined to plough ahead. It's like buildng a road through Pompeii. They nit pick about what is or is not a valuable site, an im portant structure, but the fact is the whole place is sacred, if anything is. The ruling party is Fianna Fáil, the "Soldiers of Destiny". They claim to be the most "Irish" of the parties and make great play of thir little bit of Irish language and their history and all the rest of it, but to them this is all a big joke, a sideshow to the serious business of filling developers' pockets. More information to follow.

If you'd like to see more of my photos, I upload them here regularly. Flickr.com is an amazing photo site if you don't know it but beware - it's addictive.
Claddagh Records
Irish Record Shop based in Temple Bar, Dublin. They do mail order and a good place to start if you're looking for Irish traditional music in particular.
TV B Gone
Say you're in a motel somewhere in the states trying to have breakfast under the slimy gaze of the blood stained ghouls on Fox News, or in a pub in Ireland where someone has left the TV on so that your wit and eruditon are tragically at less than full flood. What do you do? You buy a TV BGone from this wonderful company. It's a universal TV remote on a key chain, and it will TURN THE TV OFF. God, the fun I've had with this thing.

Sarah McQuaid

I produced two albums for Sarah, "when two lovers meet", and "i won't go home til morning" and we're working on a third. She's a fine deep voiced singer and a very good guitar player. For anyone seeking help with DADGAD guitar tuning, she's written a book on it.

A fabulous Irish singer from Dun Chaoin in West Kerry.
Andy Irvine
I played with Andy quite a bit some years ago, and traveled all over Europe and the states with him. A treasure.
