On March 3rd I'm going to the Gallegher Bluedorn in Cedar Falls, and my mom's friend Mr.Nickles and his band get to play in the lobby and get to meet the chieftans. But one of the band members might be having surgery so my mom might get to play the fiddle! SO then I would get to meet them!!! I'm going to have them sign my bodhran!
It never ceases to amaze me how these guys have continued to make beautiful music for 50 years. They will celebrate their 50th anniversary in 2012. Paddy and Sean are the original Chieftains. Kevin joined in 76 and Matt in 79.
@thehivesrock, Kevin's song is "I'm Here Because I'm Here". There are more verses on his album "The Week Before Easter". Matt's bit is "The Moving Cloud". I don't know what Paddy was playing.

Paddy is on tin whistle (Flageolet) and Kevin is on Bodhran. Matt Molloy was NOT an original!
