Hi,  I had fun at the social time yesterday though I was barely holding 
it together.  Thanks for the good time.  A couple of things I would like 
to mention:

1.  There was a lady there who was interested in taking up bodhran.  I 
am terrible with names but I think her name was Sue.  I should have 
thought of this but I was out of it at the time.  She lives in 
Firestone.  Greeley is probably relatively convenient for her.  I have a 
friend in Greeley, Blaine Chastain, who owns a store there called 
Whistle and Drum which specializes in, well, Celtic penny whistles and 
bodhrans:  http://www.whistleanddrum.com/   Please let her know if she's 
truly interested.

2.  You talked about me accompanying a woman singing "The Hag with the 
Money" at Cailleach Day.  I mentioned this to my husband who knows the 
song and he says that people sing it differently than I know it and I 
shouldn't do the accompaniment without at least doing a rehearsal with 
the singer.  The results could be musically disastrous.
