machree01, do you know if Paddy still tours? Any Toronto, Canada dates does anyone know?

[machree01]

@gordlightfootfan He left The Dubliners after nine years with them, and i haven't heard of any tours from then, he owns a few pubs in New York, he is 71 now, he might be taking it easy.

Does anybody know where this was filmed??

[machree01]

It was filmed in Belfast. It was either Kings Hall or the Ulster Hall.

Paddy Reilly is so great.

Such a singer. Simon Cowell would sign him in an instance, if time was on his side. Sure he is better than nearly all the x factor winners

My 4th great grandfather was from Co. Clare.... I'd love to go and research (Clare's records aren't online..) but it's a long, long way.... And it gets further day by day.....

What year was this recorded!

I have met and sessioned with him at Milwaukee's "Park East Hotel" at an after fair party one night after "MIlwaukee Irish Fest"! This was back in the late 80's/Early 90's! GOD those were great times!

GREAT Musican!

Paddy, you need to come back one more time.....We Miss you!

I'm a jackeen but the only place I would love to be is along the West coast of Clare and I have to include Kinvarra Galway. First went there with my only true love, a Kinvarra lass A Mc Cor.....17 yes ago.
