It’s a little-known fact that I actually studied abroad (insert dramatic cigarette drag) in Ireland this fall. Did you know I worked in the Irish parliament? Why, yes darling, I met the Taoiseach, a very nice bloke indeed.
Of course, I am having you on. My name is practically Rose “I studied abroad in Ireland” O’Keeffe. It is all I talk about, think about and apparently all I write about. But even before I lived and worked in the land of my ancestors, I was enthralled with the rich sound and richer history of Irish music. This St. Patrick’s day, set down your Guinness, stagger to the jukebox at Irish Eyes and request some of these raucous tunes. Next round on me.
