Cindy and I went to Irishfest on Saturday.
This is one of the accordionists of Beoga. They were quite good. The percussionist did a pretty amazing solo on the bodhrán.
This is Sharon Shannon.
She was quite... excited. Her music was a lot of fun.
Then Carlos Núñez.( Read more... )
Carlos was funny. He was so filled with wonder! Everything was the greatest thing ever. He was all about the Celtic music. The Chieftains, Latin Celtic music, Brazilian Celtic music, Mexican Celtic music. He had a lot of local musicians and dancers onstage with him. Billy Mitchell Pipe Band, Trinity Irish Dancers, Caledonia (Scottish) Dancers. One of the Caledonia boys danced a Latin infused number with Stephanie. Then Carlos asked for volunteers to come up on stage. They danced with the Scottish dancers. Then they formed a line and danced around the stage in a loop for a while. Then everyone lined up and did the Macarena. A Spanish dance for the Latin-Celtic music. It did get a little old, watching the crowd do the Macarena for a several-minte jam. It seemed like the volunteers wanted to move on, but Carlos was emphatic about how wonderful it all was. But despite all that goofiness, it was still a good show, and I enjoyed it a lot.
