Great article! It's fun to see St Paddy's getting such great press coverage.
One slight correction for the paper though, it's fish chokers not fish stomper, right??!!

Yes "chokers" indeed. We will call that one my mistake!
I must have been thinking something about goldfish that the PETA folks .................. oh well never mind.
Erica Goff, new Charlevoix Courier editor, has accepted our invitation and will be here for the big day. I will fess up to my error at that time so she can correct it in the "post event" piece she will write.

Regarding the Courier article, some clarification: I have been engaged to perform at Donegal Danny's Pub on Saturday night and Sunday afternoon. Liam and Marilyn are my kind hosts for the weekend.
I might be induced to "blaw a few" for the festivities in town, but it would be strictly spontaneous. Good old army rum (or something like it) is always a great inducement for a piper.

Does this mean I don't have to play in town this year and can concentrate on enjoying my beverages?
piping & imbibing

Geez, Jeremy, you shouldn't let a few beverages interfere with your playing. It waterproofs the bag!
I'll be there, and if you care to, we can collaborate.
Slainte Mhath!

The following is from the Traverse City Record Eagle:
Back on Beaver Island, West said there's been talk of some making this year's St. Patrick celebration a "three-dayer" due to the holiday's calender placement. Still, for some, March 17 is the lucky date.
"St. Patrick's Day is often called 'The Big Day' if you're Irish," West said.
Ah Steve.......today is known as "The Great Day".
Slainte Everyone!

"Ah Steve.......today is known as "The Great Day".
My second mistake in only a week.
Remember the old saying about the news ........ as long as they spell your name (Beaver Island) right.............Perhaps that doesn't hold true if your GOV of NY and the story involves a hooker.
For the second week in a row Beaver Island is front page above the fold in the print edition of the Charlevoix Courier.
