I’m hoping that all my friends and family will come down to play a few tunes or show us a step or just to enjoy the craic. It would be great to set a new record for cramming the most musicians and dancers performing in a pub.”

I have even got a special table set up for Declan Murphy to perform his Sean Nos Table dancing.”
