Danna Hotmar emailed a photo.

Christopher Patrick of FitzBlarney emailed a photo and wrote: "Hello, Marc! What a weekend! I personally hosted my annual St. Patrick's (Eve) party and had house FULL of revellers for food, drink, music, and fun! But Sunday, On Saint Patrick's Day itself,

my family band, FitzBlarney, played out live to a great crowd at Gentile, (Pr. 'Jentilly,') Brewery, in Beverly, MA. A small, family - run operation open to families, kids and even dogs! Just like a proper parlour!

Big crowd, lotsa fun. I spent it surrounded by friends and family, music, beer, and laughs. Couldn't ask for better.

Attached is a shot of us playing that afternoon!

Hope yours was as much fun as ours"

 

James Lochar emailed a couple St Pats photos
