The Venue - Smyths Pub
Very suited to this acoustic / "unplugged" / house party type gig - but not a "sit-around" Irish trad type session - small P.A. system with music at a comfortable volume which makes for a homely type of gig but often with a Nashville honky tonk atmosphere ! We've even had some linedancing from time to time !
The gig is very popular with pub regulars since it started April 2007 and
going strong in 2008.
