Doing a gig Last sunday when paul says 'hey charlie, check this out, this'll get'em going'. I expected some sort of blistering banjo lick or the intro to the next tune, instead he flicked a switch and activated his luminary tricolour beacon of a banjo, hilarious!
Just got back from a gig which I played entirely with one finger, my line was the third one down.
Here is the new tap on its first official outing, success all round.
Finally, i got around to replacing my old instrument cases, so its off to the case repositary in the sky for these chaps
Here is the latest settup in the shed, kegerator with standing desk for the computer.

Have to say it was pretty close but Hero's came out on top this time,
Fionn's breed is a hovawart, german hova = house, wart or ward = guard, so houseguard, and you can see it in everything he does. Here he is checking for anything suspicious out the back door.

Finns bike got outfitted with a basket last night, here he is delivering guinness to the table
Here are all the stouts I have made over the last few years, most have been repeated many many times. At the moment the uisce dubh and the icbing (i cant believe its not guinness) are bubbling away downstairs, should be ready by april.
