  • Priceless scene, great music and the late Derek "ding dong" Bell, a great harpist. A practical comment from Matt Molloy

  • You couldn't envision a better scene than this. The Cheiftans playing Irish music in an authentic Irish pub. Beautiful.

  • Ah! Nesbitt!  Hastings! Malloy! Maloney! and the late great Derek Bell! (and the rest of these fine musicians of course!)

    Fantastic tune

  • It was so much fun watching the cadets (most of whom never experienced Irish music, let alone the force that is the Cheiftains) transfixed by what they were watching. Heck, none of them were even Irish. They had a ball ,and were taken away from the hell they must have been going through, if only for a few hours. Before the show, I got backstage. Met Sean, Paddy, Kevin, Cara Butler and Danny Golden. What a night!

  • First time I saw them was in 1981 in Rockland County, New York. I was ten. Second time was in the early nineties at The U.S. Military Academy, the famous West Point. I was second row and a group of exhausted and weary cadet/soldiers were in the front row. Many were fast asleep in their seats before the show started (poor kids). But when that show started, those kids didn't know what hit them! (cont'd)

  • Beautiful! Hello from the highlands of the State of North Carolina, United States. Please see "Walter Birdwell's Channel" to see our continuation of traditional music.

    We call it "Bluegrass Music".
