    The concert is in the RAFA Club in Cwmbran, it's a bargain... with Gerry O'Connor, wizard fiddle player, and Alan Burke, amazing singer/musician along with One String Loose - local young Irish band and Shoostring Appalachian Dancers... all for £7! I hope that means you might be there?! :D :beer:

    Well you can still get down to the concert tomorrow night with Gerry O'Connor, Alan Burke, One String Loose and Shoostring Appalachian dancers and a session, or go to a workshop on Sat. or the free session at The Lamb, Penyrheol (pub on the mountain), Pontypool! If you do, say hello!!

    (pavlovs_dog said she might go to concert... we could have a mini-meet if she does!)
