Syl led a good show

It is somewhat impossible to import a live Irish pub experience into a Brooklyn apartment, if you want the real thing you have to go to Ireland. But Syl did a great job playing a couple of requests but mostly introducing us to a bunch of tunes we'd never heard before. He was punctual, prepared and we even learned a few things.

Branan and Sharon were the most generous and gracious of hosts. The pleasure was all mine. All the best to Sharon on her birthday, and wishing her many more to come.
