Made it to the “soft” opening yesterday aft. (11/06/05)…
The fit and finish of the place is really nice, warm and cosy…
The chaulkboard said live music at 3pm but it didn’t materialize…no biggy…(did come off later I’m told)

(11/20/05)
Great session this afternoon…Peter Molloy, Jeff Baker, and Jimmy Noonan on flutes !
Shaskeen Burger highly recommended…Yum !

The “Grand” opening is planned for 11/27 with the Chieftain’s and (Himself) Michael Flatley…can’t miss it…

(12/08/05) Sundays from 3:00 pm till whenever at this point…high level…definetly not a slow session (see Hampstead, NH) :wink:

jack, do you know who’s leading the session ?

I havn’t as yet been able to get a firm answer (or firm schedule…havn’t found anything on weekdays yet).

So far it looks to me like Peter and/or John…but nominally, so maby it’s just going to have to settle in with a little time…(I realy need to get over there more often…)

EDIT: Chaulkboard now says 4:00pm Sundays (figure 4:30) 'til whenever…chili soup and wraps very good, mussels extraordinary !

thanks jack… should you find out anything definite, i’d be interested in knowing…
