I thought the first jig that the Na Commarsanna Céilí Band played was “Old Man Dillon”. Great set though, what a wonderful opportunity for those that wouldn’t otherwise be able to see these events. Thank you.

Thanks for all the great music.I have been paying $30 dollars or more for a video tape when Comhaltas come out to the NY area
