I will be in Glasgow for a few days in mid-late August. Can anybody tell me about what the session scene is like these days over there. I used to go to the Babbity Bowster session occasionally when I lived there 10 years ago, which was usually alright. Is that still going on as usual? Someone was telling me the other day that Brendan McHugh (Jimmy’s son) runs a good Irish session at a bar called Sharkey’s over by the Citizen’s Theatre on Monday nights… What else is there?
I’ll be traveling with my flute & uilleann pipes… Will have to leave the smallpipes at home this time, unfortunately; am desperately trying to bone up on my Scottish repertoire on flute & uilleann pipes now…
