Karen, good luck and playing to you and Pat. I hope it is a great weekend for yoos two.
at 5 hours of piping a day for both Saturday and Sunday, it should be! One of the best tents at the Fest..
Wish I could make it up. It’s been far too long since I was last in the Windy City. 5 hours per day, sounds like my current practice schedule. 
Wow, what a lineup of piping!
I don’t know how this one snuck up on me.

Hey TK, come on down and stay right by the Fest! Will have to organize a convoy from the Twin Cities… We plan on the GNIPC next year as well. 
Foul temptress! Get thee behind me!
I have already pledged my troth to RLALOTGLAA (Rollicking Lads and Lasses of the Greater Los Angeles Area) as far as my tionolling for this Fall goes. I shall have to plan ahead for Chicago next year.

Hey all,
Patrick and I just wanted to acknowledge and thank:
Kevin, David, Tommy, Tim, Cillian, Jeff, Bob, Jim, Brendan, and Sean for the great tunes at the Uilleann Pipe Tionol Tent in Chicago last weekend!
Special thanks to David, Jim, John, Tim and Brian for tunes at the IAHC on the northside and Tim for coming down to the southside for even more music!
We were very glad to have two of the musicians who have taught us a lot about music and craic in general, Albert Neary on flute and Malachy Towey on bodhran join us on stage, that was great fun as well! 
Hope to see all of you and some of the other Tionoling folks next year for more music and merrymaking!
