Happy St. Patrick's Day (Seasonal post #3)

First and foremost, you all MUST watch this little piece of heaven. One guy wants to get a back-hoe to up-root a tree in search of the pot of gold, but I think this very video might actually be the pot of gold. Ignore this at your own peril:

Next up, we have a few music recommendations for your St. Patty's Day celebrations. Be sure to check these bands out... you won't be sorry:

Gaelic Storm: I bought their first CD yesterday to replace the greatest hits that the Ex absconded w/. To be fair, it was hers to begin w/, but I need me same drunken music for St. Patrick's Day

Teada: I've been digging these guys for a couple years. Good traditional acoustic stuff. They play around here once in a while. I've seen them twice and neither time was I let down.

Millish: As a few of you know, the son of a co-worker of mine is in this group. They are fantastic whose members have won many awards including World Champion Uilleann piper and State Champion bluegrass fiddler. Check them out!

The Chieftains: I know you've all heard of them, but be sure to hear them today. Paddy Moloney almost recorded an album w/ Jerry Garcia once... there's my little Grateful Dead reference for the day.

The Diggers: Their web-site blows, but their music is top-notch. They play Conor O'Neill's every St. Pat's Day, but I think I'm going to fore-go their set tonight in favor of some other bands.

Bad Haggis: I just got turned on to these guys recently. They're fun. They're doing stuff somewhat similar to Gaelic Storm, but a little heavier.

The Clancy Brothers: I imagine you're familiar w/ them too, but for some reason they don't have the same popularity as the Chieftains. I suppose it's because a couple are dead and they don't tour much anymore. They're playing the Magic Bag Listen to them none-the-less.
