Friday the Thirteenth will be a lucky for Celtic fans in the Albany area: the Boys of the Lough are coming to town. They’ll be at the new WAMC performing arts center. Tickets are a very reasonable $18, and you can reserve them by calling 800-323-9292.
I especially look forward to Cathal McConnell’s whistle and flute playing.
I checked out the Boys’ website for other tour dates to report here, but the last tour listed was in 2000, so if anyone else has info, I’m sure a lot of C&F folks would appreciate it.
E-mail me if you plan to attend-- I’d love to meet some fellow whistlers.
Thank you SO MUCH for posting this!! I’ll be there.
I have tickets for their Denver Show on the 15th, can’t wait to see them.
Thanks Paul. Cathall’s still part of the group or is this a back together tour or something? Boy, do I feel stupid about that Albany remark now! Regards,
Philo
Local Irish newspaper has it listed as a Trad Celtic X-Mas tour celebrating mid-winter Celt tradtions from Ireland, Scotland, Shetland and Northumberland.
For L.A. area whistlers, Boys of the Lough are at the Cerritos Performing Arts Center tonight!
Yay! Tonight! Yay! So who is going to be there?
