Poor Ould Goat

I have officially joined forces once again with my former Mr. Wonderful Surprise bandmate Joe Bacon, and have become a member of his, Chris McGonnell and Brian Carney's Celtic/Irish band "Poor Ould Goat"

I'll be playing various handdrums, as well as attempting to learn to play the bodhran (kind of a frame drum played with a mallet). The band will be very busy playing various locales the next couple months - especially St. Patrick's Day weekend, and it's really exciting to be doing something entirely different musically.

I was a little nervous at first, as you always are with something unfamiliar, but the songs are just so much damn fun it's impossible not to relax and enjoy it! I mean, the titles alone make me want to dance (if I only knew how!):

- Jolly Roving Tar

- Worst Day Since Yesterday

- Batten Down the Hatches

- Scolding Wife

- Old Black Rum

- Rake at the Gates of Hell

- Raggle Taggle Gypsy

Check out the schedule of gigs on the band's web site, as well as the Irish Center site, and come and join us for a pint or two of stout!
