James OConnor emailed: "Jim from Boston Blackthorne here. St Patricks week will be a fun one for us with a little festival in Northampton MA on March 9 then on the 15th we are opening for the Dublin City Ramblers at the Colony Theatre in Woodstock NY. Next night in the Berkshires at the Heritage House in Lenox MA.  We end the season as usual at Brennan?s on the Holyoke Parade route with all 5 original members for our 20th year!

Hope you have a wonderful month and thanks for all you have done for Boston Blackthorne!"

Darin Wallace emailed: "Hi Marc! And an early Happy Birthday to you! ??

Stout Pounders is my band and you know us. We will be celebrating by playing several gigs, starting with a show on March 10 in Spokane, WA at the Knitting Factory with the legendary Young Dubliners. So if you could add one of our songs and one of theirs to your podcast list that would be great!!! We have a newer live album streaming on all major platforms that I submitted to you a little while ago, but anything you like of ours is fine by me.

We will also be Headlining a show March 14 at the Spanish Ballroom at the McMenamins Elk Temple location in Tacoma with an opening band called Slainte and accompanied by the Seattle Irish Dance Company who will be dancing throughout the evening to the band's songs and in between. Will be a heck of a Pre - Paddy's Party.

We play Shawn O'Donnell's Everett location on Friday the 15th, The Blarney Stone Pub in Seattle on the 16th, and March 17 THE BIG DAY we are the band for the 40th Anniversary of Seattle's longest running (pun intended) 5K St. Paddy's Day Dash. The later that day back at O'Donnell's in Everett to cap off the day and week of fun.

Hope yours is a good one too! Thanks for all you do for us Indy Celts!"

Ben Doran messaged on Facebook: ?When I received the "music only version" of the "The Gaelic Blessing" podcast, I was immediately reminded of one of the most moving arrangements of The Irish Blessing that I have heard  -  - by Bill O'Connor and Larry Theiss on their ? "Traditional And Original" recording.

I am getting ready to have a day off tomorrow and will  get to chores and baking for the "Wild Hog in the Woods" usual Friday night concert that we host at a neighborhood center here in Madison. While I am mixing and baking, I'll surely/certainly listen to that "Gaelic Blessing" program in its entirety. Thanks!?

Ryan S. emailed some photos: "Hi Marc. I love the Celtic Women episodes!!

I am currently building trails outside of austin while I listen to the cast.the spring flowers are already out!"

Shel O'Toole emailed a photo: "Hi Marc, As I'm listening today I'm promoting the International Women's Day event I organised for the Ballarat and District Irish Association. The all women trio I play with, Skedaddle is performing on the day.   I'm also looking at ways to promote my newly released poetry book Wildsong. I'll be officially launching it at the IWD lunch.

I'm loving the Celtic Women special. There's so many fabulous Irish women singers and musicians. Noirin Ni Rian, the sean - ós singer and chanter, Sandra Joyce singer and bodhran player are two amazing teachers I met at the Irish World Music Summer School  - Blas, many years ago.  Niamh Parsons & Delores Keane are firm favourites & I love discovering new  female artists.

I'll probably go to a session on St Patrick's day and there's a band playing at one of the Irish pubs in the evening I want to see. Sliánte"

Every year, I take a small group of Celtic music fans on the relaxing adventure of a lifetime. Well, that?s how most of my Celtic Invasions work anyway.

But later this year, I schedule a brand new Celtic Invasion of Scotland?s Whisky distilleries. We?re gonna travel to Scotland, taste whisky, go for a hike through glorious Scottish countryside, then taste more whisky and do it all over, mixed in with some incredible food and a ton of fun.

I need 6 people to make this trip happen. If you?re interested in joining the invasion, sign up to our mailing list at http://celticinvasion.com/

Christopher Fennell replied to my Re: Happy St Patrick's Month Feedback Request:  "Hi Marc, I love your podcast! I'm celebrating the early part of St. Patrick's month by volunteering in the Iditarod race in Alaska. I'll be singing Celtic tunes while taking care of the huskies running for 1,049 frozen miles from Anchorage to Nome. I have dual citizenship with the Republic, as my grandparents immigrated from Roscommon, Dublin, and Limerick. Perhaps I can start a sled - dog team representing the Republic somewhere in the future. Best wishes,"

Ben Doran replied to my feedback request: "Hello Marc;

The weather here in Wisconsin today definitely inspires kilt wear. And weather/whether or not it is nearly this nice on St. Patrick's Day weekend, I'll be kilting it up. And singing with the band Ar Ais Aris (a - rash a - reesh)("Back Again") on Saturday in Berwyn, Il; then Sunday, to Galena, Il; then finish up with our two usual gigs for retirement communities in Rockton, Il and Beloit, WI on Monday. I will (yep) probably color my beard in orange and green for Monday.

I think among the many new sounds/new music that I've heard from your podcasts, it would be the band, Larkin, that has my fancy (this week, anyway). No, I don't consider myself fickle, just distracted.  Slainte, Marc!!"

woodland folk emailed a photo: "heading to the wood for a fire and a practice,can listen then my friend... Attached is a picture,me and another friend who plays a Welsh harp, stopped to play a little on the river brue ...."

Nathanael Stottlemyer emailed: "We're losing Good Celtic Music

Hi Marc, It was last year that I started listening to your podcast, and like a mad man I started your podcast at the very beginning. I'm now at the year 2016 and I've loved every episode. There is just one problem. When I look up the bands that I loved and that I want to purchase their music, they're gone. There's no website, no Spotify, no YouTube, sometimes I can't even find their CD's used! And it's a shame, because they're good songs and sometimes, take Young Hunting by Serious Kitchen (Which was in your best of the year podcasts more than once) it's the only Celtic rendition of the song on the internet. I managed to buy the last Tig! Album off the internet, but it's looking bad for some of my other favorites.

We're losing years of Celtic music, and it's a shame, especially since I know that the members of Serious Kitchen and others are still around. I don't suppose I'm missing a way to buy these albums. I really hope I am. I don't suppose you could use your amazing Celtfather connections and reach out to some of the people of these bands and see if they'd put on Bandcamp? Or perhaps a huge "Best of the Irish and Celtic Music Podcast" album with some of these lost treasures? They're some of the best music I've heard. Thanks, Nathanael"

Ken emailed: "Marc, I enjoy listening to your downloaded podcast while baking the morning breads at our local bakery and while being the outside greeter at church.  The music puts a smile on my face and spring in my step.  I am especially interested in your celtic invasion trips because vacations of this type are exactly what my wife and I want to do in retirement.  Have you visited a place quiet enough for senior citizens who love bicycle riding?"

Ben Q emailed: "Hi Marc, I don't think I've ever been asked a direct question on a podcast before! To answer your question about what episode and when it was that Niamh told this story, it was is in show #552: Reel Fairies, and her story starts around the 47:53 mark. It's totally worth a re - listen; she is so funny. Also wow, yep, that episode was almost two years ago. Time flies!"

Patrick Rieger sent Some More Irish Pictures: "Hello Marc, A few more photos to share.

First up, a few of Terry Griffith, the last few times he was on a stage with an in - person audience at Mullaney's Harp and Fiddle. One is from the 2020 fundraiser for the Pittsburgh Saint Patrick's Day Parade on February 13, 2020, and another is from his gig on February 28, 2020. Within a few weeks, the words Covid and Coronavirus quickly became part of our daily vocabulary, and the shows came to an end for a couple of years.

On June 4, 2022, we had a retirement party for Terry. The best part of the night is when he strapped on a guitar and led the packed pub in A Health to the Company. There were tears and cheers for him throughout the evening, but most came during that special song.

The last photo is from tonight, January 27, 2024. John McCann on acoustic guitar and Hamish on percussion packed the Harp & Fiddle. Lots of great music and an interactive audience.?

Howie Broyles commented on Facebook: "Love the podcast. I have always liked Celtic music and anything to do with Scotland or Ireland. It wasn't until I took a DNA test that I figured out why. I always thought I was mostly German because of my name and where it originates. Turns out I got mostly my moms side and they are all UK based. Ireland, Scotland and Yorkshire. So now I even enjoy it more knowing that it is my history."

Aimee Greenfield sent a picture: "Hi Mark, I love to weave and listen to Celtic music. This music has inspired me for the last 30 years while creating! The music is definitely woven into my current project of Turkish Beach Towels. Thanks for the entertainment!"

WELCOME THE IRISH & CELTIC MUSIC PODCAST

* Helping you celebrate Celtic culture through music. I am Marc Gunn.

This podcast comes out four times per month. But every three months, there?s technically an off week. That?s what this week?s show is all about.

But it is also part of a fundraising campaign for our 2024 Kickstarter.  We?re funding 100 Celtic Pins, 100 Celtic CDs, and 100 Celtic Shirts for the new year. The campaign closes on Friday. I wanted to send you one bonus episode to remind you to make a pledge to the Kickstarter to support it. This is how you can promote the podcast without filling your Facebook feed full of ?Listen to this Podcast? messages.

In addition to the regular campaign rewards, I added a couple Add Ons that are only available with any other physical pledge. The one I?m excited about is the ?Kiss Me I?m Sci F?Irish? album pin. If you're a geek like me, then I hope that appeals to you.

Alright on to the show.

Today?s show is an all - instrumental, upbeat exercise show. It lasts just over 40 minutes. And it is just the music.

You can find a link to all of the artists in the shownotes, along with show times, when you visit our website at celticmusicpodcast.com.

THANK YOU PATRONS OF THE PODCAST!

You are amazing. It is because of your generosity that you get to hear so much great Celtic music each and every week.

Your kindness pays for our engineer, graphic designer, Celtic Music Magazine editor, promotion of the podcast, and allows me to buy the music I play here. It also pays for my time creating the show each and every week.

As a patron, you get music - only episodes before regular listeners, vote in the Celtic Top 20, stand - alone stories, and you get a private feed to listen to the show.  All that for as little as $1 per episode.

HERE IS YOUR THREE STEP PLAN TO SUPPORT THE PODCAST

Go to our Patreon page. Decide how much you want to pledge every week, $1, $5, $25. Make sure to cap how much you want to spend per month. Keep listening to the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast to celebrate Celtic culture through music.

You can become a generous Patron of the Podcast on Patreon at SongHenge.com.

TRAVEL WITH CELTIC INVASION VACATIONS

NEWS

Last week, I published a free blog on Patreon?Top 11 Celtic Bands and Artists of 2023. I always find it interesting to see which artists I feature the most on the podcast in a given year. Sometimes these artists crossover the songs and tunes on the Celtic Top 20. It?s fascinating to see. Go read the article on our Patreon. Which you can follow and get blogs like this for free.

Our Make100 Kickstarter campaign is FULLY FUNDED! We funded 100 Celtic Pins, 100 Celtic CDs and 100 Celtic shirts as part of the campaign.

One of the things I did not plan for was Stretch Goals. It took me a moment, but I came up with one that makes me very happy?an exclusive compilation album.

Here?s how it works. If we can raise $6000, then I will put together a bonus compilation album. Everyone who supports the campaign at $25+ will get a copy. I?ll also print 100 physical copies of the album on CD.

The album will feature 12+ songs and tunes from our Highlight Reels. Basically, I?m gonna contact bands and see if I can license enough tracks for a bonus album. I?ll start with the Celtic Top 20. If I can get enough tracks, I?ll stop there. If I can?t then I will dig into our next most - popular Highlight Reels.

Go check out our Kickstarter right now.

Al Ha commented on Patreon: "Happy New Year, Marc! Appreciate everything that you do, thanks for continuing to bring us this great music"

Ben Q emailed: "Hi Marc, Huge fan with a fun story for you from today: I was changing my daughter?s diaper and singing a little song, in this case "The Parting Glass," to keep us both entertained. A lot of the time she will say ?Daddy, stop singing!? which hurts a little but is totally fine, ha ha. But today she said ?Dad I want you to sing ?Down by yon green bushes!?? That?s the first line of a song that I actually learned maybe two years ago from Niamh Parsons?s appearance on your podcast, ?Bonnie Woodhall,? and Niamh told a great story to go with it as well, about trying over multiple late - night sessions with her fellow musicians to remember the whole thing. I loved that song as well as her story, and I sing that a lot around my house, but  -  me not sounding much like Niamh when I sing  -  I don?t get a lot of requests around here exactly, and it really tickled me that my kid requested that one. Anyway, please keep up the good work Marc, and if it?s not too late to say so, a very happy New Year to you."

Patrick Rieger sent a picture and asked about photo sizes for the podcast: "Thank you. I can set the width at 1200 pixels. The photos are already at 72dpi.

Here is a photo of The Craic Show on September 3, 2023, during the opening gate act of the Pittsburgh Renaissance Festival. The Donegal Doggs can be seen seated on the left waiting their turn.

I'll keep the photos coming. We'll be attending Great Lakes, Pittsburgh, and Ohio again this year. We planned the dates to attend Ohio in 2024 during Pub SIng this last year."

Guild' Arcana emailed a photo: "Hi! Greetings from South of Brazil!

My name (artistic name) is Morghán and I am the lead vocalist of a fantasy folk music band from Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, and I am, maybe, an Irish by heart (never been there  -  in this life  - , but simply love Ireland) and all the things about Celtic world. ??

I love your Podcast! When I am listening to, it is like I transport myself for a moment to the Celtic world. Thank you for that! ??

Well, what am I doing while listening to the Celtic Podcast? College homework! ?  I am a Digital Design student, and I am doing hand drawing homework.

Thank you again for this wonderful Podcast!

Lots of blessings!"

Jeremiah Dønier emailed from Langly, WA: "Hello Marc,

I tried signing up for your mailing list but got an error message saying the mailing list is not active.

My family and I live on the windswept isle of Whidbey upon the Salish Sea. I stumbled across your app in May after canceling my iTunes subscription and we are loving the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast. A few weeks ago, we enjoyed a couple of hours of the music as we pickled some pints of cucumbers (see attached photo).

My love of Celtic music goes back to my family's roots. My dad's kin are mostly from the Swiss Alps and Scandinavia, but my mom's family came from Scotland and Ireland to settle in the Pacific Northwest in the late 1800s. So, I grew up listening to Celtic folk tunes played by my parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles.

Then I began listening to a range of Celtic music as a teenager in the mid - 1990s. Of course, I enjoyed the explosion of modern Celtic music during this time with crossovers into New Age and Rock. Many purists deride this as faux Celtic but it didn't matter to me. I like the flitting of flutes, braggadocio of bagpipes, and harmony of harps. One of my favorite memories from back then, was going to an oversold a Colcannon show in Ellensburg, Washington and I was seated on the stage!

Since then, I accumulated an eclectic collection of Celtic tunes. During the pandemic I began looking through my older CDs and found "Celtic Legacy A Global Celtic Journey" by the Narada. It features are a number of groups from Ireland, Breton, Wales, and Scotland and the American Celtic diaspora. Then I noticed there a group stands out as bit different and it has become one of my favorites: Milladoiro.

They come from northwest Spain which I learned is a region rich but often overlooked in Celtic history. Indeed, research shows many cultural and genetic links between Ireland, Galicia, and the Basques.

Anyway, I wanted to say hello, share a bit about me and my love of Celtic music. Throughout the week the podcast is my way to relax. With over 500 episodes it is going to take me awhile to get through them all. I love how you feature so many different types of Celtic music with differrent themes.

So, all this leads me to I wonder if you've ever done a show on global Celtic music? Perhaps you could feature some of those groups like Milladoiro that add a bit a different flavor to the Celtic tunes we love.

Go raibh míle maith agat! (May you have a thousand good things!)"

Pronunciation: guh rev mee - leh mah agut

Dave Ottalini emailed from Silver Spring, Maryland: "Just dropping a note to say thank you. Your podcasts are wonderful and I listen to them all the time  -  they bring joy at all times of the year."

Shawn Webster emailed a photo: "Greetings! Today I?m patching a concrete floor following a sewer line repair! The podcast makes this work much more tolerable. Thank you for another great episode."

Christopher Patrick of the band FitzBlarney emailed some Christmas photos from Salem, Massachusetts and wrote: "Hello, Mark! Wanted to share! For Christmas this year I FINALLY got my Bluetooth receiver for my car! This means I can now start my day listening to the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast on my daily commute! My commute to work being only 20 to 30 minutes, I get to travel home listening to it too!

I have just finished listening to your Celtic - Christmas episode, and was very impressed with the tunes  -  especially the creative arrangements. These gave me so many ideas for future arrangements with my Celtic Music band, FitzBlarney.

We actually began as an ?Acoustic - Celtic Christmas? trio, (comprised of myself and my two sisters.) Since then, we have taken on my brother and brother - in - law, and also play non - Christmas, Irish/Celtic music.

In fact, this past December, we were asked to play at the Historic Salem ?House Tour.?

In essence, people with historic houses open them up to the public to walk through and see their Christmas displays. Musicians, ( like ourselves, ) set - up and create some Christmassy background music. This year, we were playing in the chapel of St. Peter?s Church, (founded in 1733!)

We also did our ?Acoustic Brunch,? at O?Neill?s Pub, also in Salem, MA. (I have attached a couple? pictures for you!)

Thank you again for all you do! My commutes sound great now!"

Tim Hughes sent a photo: "while walking our tri - pawed dog, Kinder, on the bike path on a wintry morning in Madison, WI."

Eric G emailed: "Hey Marc! Regarding the proposed whiskey tour, it's one of my bucket list items to go on an Invasion...but teaching makes it difficult. For this proposal, I start back up August 9, 2024. If you end up scheduling earlier let me know, we're definitely into hiking. Actually this is old now but one of the "what are you doing while listening to the Podcast" was running from Wordsworth's Dove Cottage in Grasmere UK up to Easedale Tarn in heavy rain. Even with rain jackets we got wet but it was glorious and the music matched the scene."

Rich Hoffman replied to the Celtic Music Magazine's Christmas greetings: "Thanks for all the great music Mark. It is a true gift to us. Happy 2024! "

emilio marco colombo also replied: "Many thanks Marc. And a big hug from Italy! And thank you always for the beautiful music you offer us!"

Patrick Rieger emailed photos: "Hello Marc, Here are photos from the Celtic Christmas Music show Celtic Pittsburgh hosted at Mullaney's Harp & Fiddle the evening of December 9th.

The performers were Cahal Dunne; Mike Clancy and Alan Booth of Abbots Cross; Bill McShane of the University of Pittsburgh Nationality Rooms and Intercultural Exchange Program speaking about the Scottish room; Kip Ruefle and Lawrence McCullough of the Kip Ruefle Trio; Jessica Willard on hammered dulcimer, and RichPatrick, with (l to r) Sue Borowski, Rich Lange, and Jim Borowski.

The pub was packed that night, and everyone had a great time. A big thanks to the staff of the Harp for handling such a crowd so well."

Bill Mandeville commented on Patreon: "Great Christmas podcast! A family member commented that the songs were so fresh and original. Not the supermarket fare you hear to ad nauseam this time of year. Here is wishing you and your lovely family a merry Christmas."

He wrote a separate post regarding the Celtic Top 20 episode: "I jotted down a couple songs to vote for; but only to find out the songs were from 2012 podcast and not on the list. That?s when I got this epiphany. Why don?t you reopen the best of (prior year). You can call it  -  Best if 2012: For Real This Time.

Gwênlyn Glusman emailed a photo: "Hi Marc, I think I first enjoyed the Irish & Celtic Music podcast in late 2005, but I wasn't much into podcasts then and lost track of it... Then on December 26th, 2022 (exactly one year ago) I did some google images search and a logo caught my eye among the results... and I rediscovered your podcast! Been avidly listening since then, and became a patron in January 2023.

I typically listen to the podcast while walking in the neighborhood or while commuting (which I do by bus). It always lifts my mood! Also very much enjoying the Celtic Christmas podcast!

Here's a photo from Dervish at the Triple Door in Seattle, November 7th. I heard from you they were touring, and very much enjoyed the show, with friends!"

Annelise Laughlin emailed: "Hi Marc, I?m enjoying some quiet time and listening to your Celtic Christmas 2023 episode while brainstorming my New Year?s resolution!

Thanks so much for continuing to produce your podcast. I love listening whenever the mood strikes me, and it always brings me joy.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!"

Katherine McMillan sent some pictures: "Hi Marc! My name is Kat, I?m an Aussie and I was travelling through Peru for the month of July. You mentioned in a recent episode to send in travel pictures, so here are a few happy snaps from my recent wanderings.

I?ve played the flute for many years, with my favourite type of music to play being anything Celtic. However, while in the city of Cusco, I met a Peruvian flute maker and fell in love with the sound of the low Andean meditation flute. I?m already thinking of creative ways I can blend the Andean flute with a Celtic sound. I?d be open to any suggestions! I?ve attached a photo of me playing the Andean flute at Laguna Churup, it was quite a hike to get there but well worth the view.

Aside from that, I get very badly motion sick on buses and unfortunately this is the main mode of transport to get around Peru. I found that zoning out by listening to the Irish and Celtic Music Podcast was incredibly helpful on long haul bus rides, so thank you for helping me to prevent motion sickness while travelling!

I can?t wait to hear where your next Celtic Invasion takes you.

Happy travels,"

 

Patrick Rieger emailed photos: "Hello Marc, My family and I went to three faires this year, and I wanted to share some photos of the musicians.

First up are photos from the Great Lakes Medieval Faire. Then the Pittsburgh Renaissance Festival. And finally, the Ohio Renaissance festival. I'll need to spread them out over two or three emails because of attachment size limits."

Patrick Rieger sent pictures from PITTSBURGH: "Hi Marc, Thank you so much for so many years of the podcast, Marc, and the invitation to share pictures of Irish musicians we are enjoying this Summer. I look forward to each episode. My wife and play it in the car and at home.

This is John McCann, on stage at Mullaney's Harp & Fiddle Irish Pub in Pittsburgh, on July 15. John is a regular there, and my family, friends and I always enjoy his shows. John is helping to teach our 11 year old son how to properly clap along to what our late friend, Terry Griffith, described, in jest, as annoying Irish audience participation songs. Our son doesn't have the timing down yet but he is getting better. His favorite is Whiskey in the Jar.

Casey Deely joined John on stage for a couple of songs that night.

There are plenty more shows to go to before Summer ends, so if you want more photos just let me know. And if you ever find yourself in Pittsburgh, my wife and I will gladly introduce you to our favorite irish pub."

Sophie Wildman - Gurung emailed: "Dear Marc, I thought I'd write as I've been listening to your podcast this afternoon as I tie up the first plants in my new garden in Somerset (UK) in holes kindly dug by my magical friend Bangles (Woodland Folk). It was Bangles who first introduced me to your podcast shortly after we first met last November. We met when I was then living in Wells and he was busking 'Troika' by Sergei Prokofiev which was the peice of music I had been looking for, to fit in with 'I believe in Father Christmas' by Greg Lake, that I had been working on. Since then we have been jamming together regularly (mainly folk), often at his spot in the woods, sometimes around the folk nights nearby, with him on his fiddle and me on folk harp (22 strings) and singing.

You recently played a recording he'd sent in of some crows so I thought I'd send in one he did of me playing a verse from 'Longlife and Sucess to the Farmer' (quite appropriate for this time of year and my afternoons activities although as an advocate of 'no - dig gardening' I'm not a fan of ploughs,) accompanied by probably the same crows  -  warning us if there are walkers nearby. Maybe with a bit more practise we'll get 'I believed in Father Christmas' together to send you, fingers crossed in time for Christmas!

Really enjoying your podcasts, thank you. I've been a fan of Celtic music as long as I can remember. My family is originally from Cornwall which may have something to do with it and obviously lots of music for lever harp (which I've been playing since I was 10) is Celtic. So long may the podcast continue, play on!

Kind regards"

Woodland Folk sent some pictures and wrote: "Heard bout Ur scifirish on band camp.... inspired... One of the first videos I saw online when I had a skylark(not a violin or fiddle but I respect it greatly for teaching me the tentative mechanics),an Irish man with a fiddle on his knee, looking into the camera said "it's love".... Wisdom many could learn from..."

woodland folk sent another photo: "I feel I have been out of the loop, looking forward to making up for this by listening back to a few old faithful episodes (man of the house/2 hour fiddle episode and all...) and a few new ones on a 9 hour coach trip to moffat in Scotland,to see my son who is now a strapping, baritone 17 yrs.....

Time is an odd thing....

I tentatively tryed a little Fahey in wells yesterday, though simple with few embellishments....in a way the simplest tunes are the hardest to play,Irish washerwoman or silver spear are deceptive and pretty......

I find Music the grandest analogy for life..."

Kael Wiersch emailed photos and wrote, "Thank you for the show! I really enjoyed being able to take along a varied selection of fresh Irish and Celtic music to enjoy far from civilization or along a cobblestone street after a pint! Last summer solstice I began bicycling alone from CT towards Yellowstone planning to winter in Arizona. 16 months later I returned to CT after 17,000 miles and about 40 episodes of the Celtic and Irish music podcast. I picked up a couple tin whistles along the way to dive a little deeper into the spirit. with love kaelwhale"

Dan McClain emailed a photo while Listening to Black Tower #635 on a Northbound Train: "Hello, Today I?m listening to episode #635 while I travel on AmTrak?s Texas Eagle from Taylor TX to Bloomington IL. Attached picture is the train station at Temple TX.  Thank you for all you do to celebrate and promote Celtic music."

Patrick Rieger emailed some photos: "Hi Marc, I wanted to thank you for choosing my message from a few months back to read on the air and share the photo in the show notes in episode 615 of the Irish and Celtic Music Podcast.

You are very right, it is wonderful to be more involved in the community and help spread the fun and the joy of Celtic music and other aspects of the culture. And to think it all started 17 years ago when a friend told me about something called renaissance festivals.

Celtic Pittsburgh is growing. My wife and son have joined in, as well as a friend. We had tables at the Pittsburgh Irish Festival, and the Ligonier Highland Games.Thanks to those events we have many more subscribers on our Facebook page, and I have learned about other events and other musicians and bands I had not heard of before.

I have attached a few photos. The Irish festival was held on the site of an old steel mill in Rankin, Pa, just outside of Pittsburgh. In one photo, Sue Borowski's group, RichPatrick, can be seen performing at the Ligonier Highland Games.

On Labor Day weekend, Sue and I were interviewed on the radio! It was an "I can't believe I am doing this" moment. If you care to have a listen, here is the link.

Again, thank you!

John Golden answered the question, What are you doing while listening?: "Often working BUT usually play the St Paddy?s episode for the family feast."

James J. Grefig replied: "Hi Marc, This St. Patrick?s Day I hope I?ll be listening to your podcasts."

John Mahony replied to the Celtic Music Magazine: "Hey Marc, Thanks for everything you do to promote Irish and Celtic culture! I usually listen while working on technical stuff. It relaxes me and helps me keep up with newer bands. For St. Patrick?s Day, I will be going to a lower - key party rather than hitting the bars, though I might stop at one or two. I help produce live Irish and Celtic music shows year - round, so I guess the answer is that I?m just doing more of the same!"

Edward Birdsall emailed: "Greetings; What am I doing while listening  -  out for daily walk if it is not raining or snowing here in Georgia (1 - 2hours long)  also I listen while donating platelets at the Red Cross which I do on average every 6 weeks which means 2.5 - 3hrs of show for that "

Chris Raisin replied to the question, 'What are you doing while listening?': Usually lying in bed with my eyes closed (but not asleep). And for Patrick's Day? "Probably the same as I do for any other day (being 73 years old, single and living alone having lost contact with all my friends due to those infernal lockdowns we had in Melbourne." He's celebrating "By just listening to your great podcasts each time they are issued and remembering back to my days as an energetic Scottish (yes, not Irish) Country Dancer and Highland dancer (not so good at the Highland stuff?LOL). I still have a kilt in my closet (a bit moth eaten now) which I ceased fitting into about 30 years ago. Keep up your great sessions, and I look forward to (I hope) a bonus session. Slainte!"

Nacer Talel messaged me with a photo on Facebook: "Listening from Tunisia , I am Tunisian and super fan of the podcast and the culture . Keep it up guys !"

Mike Coombs messaged me: "Hi Marc, I?m listening to your brilliant podcast for the first time in ages, recovering from an awful week of covid  -  it?s still with us and very real. I?ve been vaccinated and had the booster shots and I?m pretty fit but it was still awful, so goodness knows what it would have been like if hadn?t been vaccinated!

Anyway I just wanted to say how uplifting and healing it is to listen to such great music. Thank you so much for producing this. I can afford to subscribe only a small amount each month but it is worth very much more.

As a musician myself I appreciate how much a show like this can help what is not the most popular music in the world  -  even though it should be  -  to come to the attention of more people. It is great to hear so many great musicians and tunes that I have never heard before. You just mentioned Heather Dale whose album  Fairytale I bought after hearing her on your show  so I shall make sure to check out your next podcast! When I am better I shall probably send you an old recorded track of mine that you may want to play. I am hoping to get an album mastered as soon as I can afford it, but this track I think fits the Celtic criteria so it would be interesting to see what you and your listeners if you decide to play it think.

All the best and keep producing these great podcasts "

I'm listening to Episode 626 of your show while sitting on the back porch. The weather has finally cooled off for a little while, so I'm taking advantage of it while I can. Take care and have a blessed day."

jendefer also posted on Mastodon: "Just listened to the new #Jiggy single of Willie Taylor, and wow, is it intense! Thanks @celtfather for another great Irish & Celtic Music Podcast episode"

Rachel Red commented on Patreon: "I saw Old Blind Dogs a few weeks ago and they performed Highland Lassies Parts 1 & 2. It was the bees knees! Glad to see it was featured this week."

Finally, Allie Ryan asks: "Hi Marc, do you know any ?district 2? Irish music bands?

?District 2? being the City Council East Village, Gramercy Park, Kips Bay, Lower East Side of Manhattan ?

Our family, including our 9 & 11 yr old daughters listen to the podcast on Sundays when going to music lessons ( and to practice Irish dance lessons  )

I am running to represent the district in City Council and would love to represent/ promote a local band(s)/artist on the campaign trail. My husband is clipping together video clips and always needs a good song.

We plan to have a meet and greet at our local Paddy Reillys bar ( lot of history there !)  -  so who knows, maybe we?ll at some point have a venue / gig for them -   hopefully a victory party.

Thanks for any response. Election coming up Tuesday so we will be in full campaign mode non stop til then  -  things will happen fast.

Hope this gives you some inspiration / ideas and hope to hear from you or artists soon ( feel free to pass on this email / address ). "

Marjie Kennedy replied to the Celtic Music Magazine feedback request: "I wanted to let you know that on March 17th I will be at the Hibernian parade in the Dogtown neighborhood of St. Louis Missouri.  St. Louis has two parades each year because the Dogtown one is on March 17 every year, and the downtown St. Louis one is always the Saturday before St. Patrick's Day (unless the 17th falls on a Saturday, in which case I think they end up both being the same day).

I will listen to your podcasts either before or after those festivities. And this past Sunday, March 12, I celebrated by including some Celtic music and other Irish tunes on the radio program that I host on KDHX.org called Lotsa A Cappella.

Thanks for all you do for Celtic music!"

Tera Bochik replied: "I'm usually driving around doing my patrol rounds as a security guard.

Unfortunately I have to work on St. Patrick's day. (Missing the First Annual 20th World's Shortest St. Patrick's Day parade in Hot Springs, AR.)

I celebrate by listening and sharing about the podcast to anyone who asks what I'm listening to."

Von Rothenberger replied from Lucas, Kansas: "Happy Birthday! Erin Go Braugh! Thank you for all that you do."

Rick Cunningham of Boxing Robin replied: "Hello Marc, Many thanks for including Boxing Robin on Vol 2 of the St. Patrick's Day podcast! Have fun at the gig tonight -  we're playing 80 miles away but at least it's a fairly early gig! All the best.

Tom McHugh sent a photo: "Hello Marc, One of the things I like to do while listening is make pens. The first picture is a Celtic - themed ballpoint pen I recently completed. The second picture is what two pens I recently made looked like while they were still on the lathe at our local makerspace.

Thanks for making the podcast! I?ve very must enjoyed listening to all the new music!"

Christina Maree replied to the Celtic Music Magazine feedback request: "Hi Marc,  I love your podcast and have been listening to it for a while. It's very versatile! Useful for running, cleaning, cooking, organizing teacher resources and writing report cards (I'm a Kindergarten teacher)! I will be celebrating St Patrick's Day by playing my harp and listening to more inspiring tunes (a la the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast). Thanks for sharing! Go raibh maith agat!"

Pronunciation: guh ruh mah a - gut

Dennis O'Brien replied: "I listen while working on/planning my Dungeons & Dragons game for the week.

On St. Patrick's Day I am cooking a meal for my wife's family  -  a tradition since we first started dating. We will also listen to the Dropkick Murphys concerts from years past, if they don't have one live on YouTube.

We will be singing along  -  my wife's Irish born grandmother can't make it this year, but we WILL be making a phone call to far off Minnesota."

Stacia Ahlfeld replied: "We'll probably be doing school while listening. My kids like Irish and Celtic music as much as me. I am hoping to go to a nearby town's St. Patrick's Day parade. The town's name is Ireland, so they kind of blow it up. We'll probably continue to listen to music, and I might tell some stories."

Ethan Sellers of Logical Fleadh emailed: "Hey Marc -

Just wanted to send a belated thank - you for the Mother?s Day spin.  Such a nice thing to highlight the women in Celtic music.  The strong presence of women  -  especially instrumentalists  -  in traditional music is one of the things I really appreciate about the field. Cheers,"

Ann Peck McBride emailed: "I first heard the podcast about 13 years ago! And it's taken me all this time to become a Patreon member. Sorry, Marc!

I'm embarrassed to say I listen to your podcast while I'm doing housework. (It's a treat I give myself so that I'll actually do the housework) I am always surprised at the wonderful new Celtic artists you play.

I first listened to you because I needed to hear all the Celtic music I could. I listen now, partly for that reason, and partly because for the last few years, I have co - hosted a Celtic Music Hour program in Salem Oregon, on KMUZ. As my friend (and I think yours) Steve Behrens said, "We've fallen down the rabbit hole of Celtic music!" And here in the Pacific Northwest, we have a LOT of Celtic musicians... Thanks"

Debra Roche emailed a photo: "Hello, Mark, I recently played your St Patrick's Day 2023 podcast from SiriusXM and loved it!

Many years ago (1985 - 1991)I had opened The Celtic Cottage & Roche's of Ireland in Davenport, & Bettendorf, IA which brought me to do an Irish show at St Ambrose University for their college radio show.

How much fun that time in my life was! Whenever you give back to your community it is just the best when your family roots are connected! As my father's parents where from County Limerick Ireland. Glin & New Castle West.

Hope you're well and thank you for your music podcast!?

Melissa Helman emailed a photo of her dirty dishes: "So exciting, I know. Keep up the great work with the podcast."

Christopher Patrick of Salem, MA emailed a couple photos: "Hello Mark!

I can?t tell you how happy I am to have discovered the ?Irish & Celtic Music Podcast!? But I?m gonna try, all the same!

You see, in my childhood, my 5 siblings and I would get loaded up into our family station wagon every Saturday morning by our mother. She would then proceed to drive us all into Boston for our weekly Irish Step Dancing lessons. Our rides both in and back were spent listening to Boston?s AM?s radio show, ?The Irish Hour,' and later, ?The Irish Hit Parade,? (still on the air to this day!)

So, those jigs and reels were ingrained in us in our step dancing, and the other traditional music was from our rides there and home. My mother soon landed us an agent, and we, the six kids, danced all around the Greater Boston area.

So, it is no real big surprise that these days, I play in an Irish Music Band with my family. Comprised of myself, my brother, two sisters, and brother - in - law, we perform under the name of ?FitzBlarney,? based in Salem, Massachusetts.

I?ve attached a coupla? photos for you, too  -  one of the six of us in our 1970s step - dancing attire, and one from this past St. Patrick?s Day, where FitzBlarney played out at The Witches Brew pub in Salem.

The music you play means a lot to me, so, I recently became a patron. Just out of appreciation! Thanks again, and ?Sláinte!?

P.S. I would love to one day get on your podcast! That?d be so cool!"

Greetings all, Lot?s going on. I just booked the house that we will be staying at on next year?s Celtic Invasion of the Isle of Man. The invasion is all booked up. However, there might be a second invasion added in August. So if you?re not yet, subscribed at celticinvasion.com, make sure you go ahead and do that.

The Secret World of Celtic Rock compilation CDs that were funded on Kickstarter last month, they have arrived. I hope to do a listening party for that album next week. I?ll let you know the details as soon as I have some and when the physical CD is on sale on my Bandcamp page.

I am still waiting for two people who haven?t completed the Kickstarter survey to contact me with info. Otherwise, the shirts and tote bags should arrive from my printer by next when I will start mailing stuff out.

If you are a Celtic musician or in a Celtic band, then please submit your band to be played on the podcast. You don?t have to send in music or an EPK. Just complete the permission form at 4celts.com.

Francis Leach replied to the Celtic Music Magazine's feedback request: "Marc, Love your shows.  Thanks. I  Usually work around the house.  I especially like to listen while doing yard work." For St Patrick's Day?  "Hanging at two of our favorite Irish pubs, drinking Guinness and Jameson, and listening to some great Irish bands. We constantly have Celtic music on in our house and we are planning a trip to Ireland this summer.  Our trip three years ago got squashed due to the pandemic."

Travis Senzaki replied: "Hi Marc, thank you for continuing to put out this podcast year after year! This St. Patrick's Day, the podcast is really my only connection to Celtic culture, so I'll be spending the evening listening with my kids. Over the years of listening, I have moved from the US to rural Japan, where there is no other access to my Irish roots. I have to travel to even find Guinness on tap. But thanks to you, my kids have picked up on Celtic music (or "Daddy's car music", as they call it) and even recognize it when some of the common themes find their way into movie or game music. I hope to continue sharing this music and culture with them as they grow older, and your podcast remains my best resource to do so. Thank you!

Thanks again for all you do! I'm looking forward to listening to the St. Patrick's Day episode(s) over a glass, even if I have to pour it from a can. Slainte!"

Sarah Shorter replied: "Good morning Marc. We are enjoying some autumn sunshine down in new zealand. I'm listening with my son (18 months old) and he loves the show.

St Patrick's for us will be attending play centre (a parent run education centre) where we will be making shamrock fairy bread.( green sprinkles on buttered bread cut out with a cookie cutter) quite a conglomeration of celtic and new zealand cultures. We will also be bringing in a play list to share with the kids ( aged 0 to5 ) I'm just putting it together now starting from the best of 2022 and 2023 Playlist.. Kia Ora"

Metta RavenHeart replied: "Thanks for the offer. Generally, I listen to your amazing podcasts when I am making my morning brew; or I am jeeping to my next hike here in the mountains of southwestern New Mexico.

I will spend St. Patrick?s Day celebrating the coming of Spring and the sprouting of my clover lawn. Who knows, maybe I will find a four leafer!"

Steve & Jane emailed: "Mostly just listening..and enjoying the music and wishing I could play like that.

Cooking bangers and mash. St Paddy parade March 10 and St Augustine Celtic Festival March 10&11, and St Paddy celebration in Ponte Vedra FL on Sunday March 19, watching TV to see Chicago River and Hillsborough River in Tampa died green"

Steve Marlow emailed: "Hi Marc , While I'm listening I am sitting on my narrowboat (my home) and perhaps doing little jobs? On St Patrick's day I will be in my local drinking a Guinness and listening to an Irish band ( local guys)"

Nannette Billings replied: "I  usually do house cleaning.  For St Pats day I'm making traditional Corned beef and cabbage and doing what I do any other day .?"

zachary gunter messaged me on Patreon: "Hey Marc, I was introduced to irish music through an album done by the 97th regimental string band. They focus on american civil war music. But on one of their albums, Irish chanty, if i remember right. I gained an appreciation for the irish/celtic genre.

Not sure if its possible, but if there was an episode based off of irish music focused on war songs sung in battle that would be an awesome episode.

Thank you for everything you do, ive been listening for years now off and on, and it never fails to make my day brighter."

Dave L. replied on Mastodon about Kyle Carey's Kickstarter: "I got to see Kyle in a house concert years ago. What a talented artist with a beautiful voice. I may have to get me one of these cards."

David Van Horn replied to a picture and funny song request: "Marc: One of my most favorites funny songs from you is ?Beer, Beer, Beer.? I neglected to take a photo of the brisket.  It was devoured quickly so no proof remains."

Andrew Kruspe of Black Market Haggis replied: "Marc, Hello! First, I hope y?all are doing well, and that you had a wonderful St. Patrick?s Day season.

We did here, and we thought we would share some photos from a special event that we did at Lowe Mill in Huntsville. We had a ?hands - on concert.? We played a 45 minute set, and then we passed out about 35 bodhráns and taught the audience how to play a reel. They then joined us for a tune! You can find photos here:

Maureen R replied: "St. Patrick's Day is a family day, starting with donuts, then Mass at St. Colman, one of the oldest churches in Cleveland, that for decades had supported a largely Irish immigrant neighborhood. This Mass is the start of the day for the West Side Irish American Club. The dignitaries and club marching units from pipes and drums to tiny pom pom "Bridgies" march into the church with all the regalia of the annual St. Patrick's Day parade. Parts of Mass are read in Irish Gaelic, and familiar Irish songs and readings are shared. The lighting in the church is changed to green uplights and the hall is filled wall to wall with families in Irish sweaters and Irish pride.

After Mass and the marching units parade out of the church, everyone heads to downtown Cleveland for the annual St. Patrick's Day parade, one of the largest of its kind in the U.S. and one of the only St. Patrick's Day parades that is always held ON the day.

After the parade, families disperse to the many parties all around town. After marching in the parade, I will head off to entertain the crowds with my band, Ballinloch for the last performance of a two week non - stop Irish adventure."

betty collette replied: "A bonus St. Patrick's Day show would be fabulous! Usually I'm sewing while I listen to the podcast. For St. Patrick's Day we love to listen to Irish/Celtic music all day so if it's in a podcast, we'll add that for our listening pleasure. And we ALWAYS have corned beef dinner!"

Darin Wallace of the Stout Pounders wrote: "For St. Patrick's Day I am celebrating by playing music all day in pubs in Seattle, WA with my band Stout Pounders. We would love it if you featured one of our upbeat newer tracks from our Pour Decisions album.  :) Enjoy the big day and happy birthday in advance!! "

Gordon Webb replied to the Celtic Music Magazine: "While listening I relax back in a recliner with my feet up. For your St. Patrics show, the more the better. Thanks for all of your years of shows."

Catherine Koehler replied the Celtic Music Magazine: "I know I only need to answer one of the questions but I'm an overachiever so I will do all three.  What I always do while listening is something school related  -  I'm either grading papers or looking up or creating new assignments.

I used to be quite low on St. Pat's but I have finally realized that there are many ways to be happy on this day of Irish celebration.  I live in a very "unusual" area that has no Irish culture at all.  I am a Celtic performer who must travel quite a distance in order to perform at festivals and events but that is impossible during the week since I work a regular job. I used to be sad to see all of my friends on Facebook singing and playing all week long!  I wanted so much to be with them and enjoying the festivities.  Then I realized that I was blessed to spend that time with my family...making an authentic Irish meal (NOT cornbeef and cabbage) and listening to those same friends on a mountain of CD's.  There are, of course, Irish libations involved. : - )

Now I look forward to the day as it was originally meant to be; a chance to share our faith and our heritage with others."

Raven Lunatic replied to my Celtic Music Magazine request: "I have been going back and listening to episodes of your podcast I missed! Walked in Baltimore St Padraig?s Parade on Sunday. Will be starting the feast day with a Mass then full Irish breakfast!!"

Adam Young replied: "Hi Marc -  -

I'm usually working while listening, doing graphic design work or something similar...or just sitting and concentrating on the music itself.

I've got two gigs on St. Patrick's Day, so I'll be out in the pubs (2 - 5 pm and 8 - 10 pm) in Sydney, NS, and joining a fellow artist (who you've featured recently), Mary Beth Carty, at her session in the morning.

That's also how I'm celebrating the culture through music this St. Patrick's Day!  Our focus is more Scottish music, but we'll be throwing as much Irish into the mix as we possibly can...and staying away from green beer and pots of gold and leprechauns...

Best of luck on the show(s)! Thanks"

Roger replied: "Greetings Marc from Kendal UK  its snowing. been making a Shepherds Pie for tea while listening to the last episode with the odd stop to practise my bodhran against a song... i need lots of practice...

keep up your good work. your podcast is essential listening especially if you have a ceiling to wall paper. best regards"

Phil Hartline replied to the Celtic Music Magazine: ?I listen in my shop, where I make musical instruments and general wood projects.   I am celebrating Celtic Culture through music by learning to play the fiddle! I have a wonderful opportunity to learn true Co. Clare style from a man who spent a lot of time there. Beginner that I am, I will still be playing tunes on my fiddle to celebrate!"

Paul replied: "Marc, I was sitting at my computer writing code ... as one does ..

"For St Patrick's Day?" I will be participating in an Irish Road Bowling event with my co - workers at the Green Bank Observatory in Green Bank, West Virginia

We started back in October, listening to music for Samhain, then continued into November and December with Celtic Christmas ... and really we listen to Celtic music year - round  -  but I will be celebrating Celtic culture by wearing the green on Friday while I'm busy at Ból an bhóthair, then hoisting a proper stout afterwards. Going to a fife and drum reunion in July (in Williamsburg, VA), where I will be playing a heck - ton of good Irish, Scots, and Welsh music (as well as a smattering of German and English marches, because, well, 18th C. Military music was all over the place)

We always enjoy your shows!!!"

PENNIERICH replied: "During the show we usually take a break and just relax and listen.?

Jesse Ferguson emailed: "I'll be listening to the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast at work that day, then practicing my favourite Irish songs at home on my guitar. Finally, I'll be activating a new Irish song on my YouTube channel, to share with my subscribers, a tradition I've kept going for over 12 years."

Michael Maccarone emailed: "Marc Gunn, I usually download episodes and stockpile them. I listen to them on (my rare) vacations, after I have broken them down into 20 - 25 minute chunks (my mp3 player won't rewind within a track, so I split each episode into 3 - 5 mini episodes, which makes it easier if I missed something and want to go back). As a result, I'm only up to episode #430 so far.

I don't have any specific Celtic culture plans [for St Patrick?s Day] for this week, other than I just watched the Oscar - winning short, An Irish Goodbye yesterday, and hope to get to the Banshees of Inisheerin in the next couple of weeks. Keep up the good work!"

WELCOME IRISH & CELTIC MUSIC MINI PODCAST

I?m Marc Gunn, and I launched a Kickstarter for the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast on Thursday. I need your help to make this a smashing success. This is the second 6 - Pack Mini episode you?re getting as we promote the campaign which ends on August 11.

You can find a link to all of the artists in the shownotes, along with show times, when you visit our website.

And if you want to make a Song Dedication for a very special Dedication episode in December, you can do that as part of the campaign. Go to celticmusic.org/celticrock to make a pledge.

CLOSING

I hope you enjoyed the show.

In the last episode, I mentioned the Album Pins. Well, there will also be physical CDs funded by this campaign. I?m only printing 100 copies. The album hasn?t been available in probably 10 - 12 years. So this is your chance to own the limited - edition album.

And if you?re concerned about Climate Change, like I am, then I?d like to recommend that you also get a Celtic Earth Tote Bag as well.

I?m gonna bet that single - use plastic bags will no longer be allowed at grocery stores in the next 10 years. California is already doing that as are many countries around the world. It?s great for the environment. So you can get ahead of the curve and do something great for our planet.

There are lots of other rewards to check out. Go to celticmusic.org/celticrock to make a pledge.

THANK YOU PATRONS OF THE PODCAST!

Because of Your kind and generous support, this show comes out at least four times a month. Your generosity funds the creation, promotion and production of the show. It allows us to attract new listeners and to help our community grow.

As a patron, you get music - only episodes before regular listeners, vote in the Celtic Top 20, and you get a private feed to listen to the show.  All that for as little as $1 per episode.

HERE IS YOUR THREE STEP PLAN TO SUPPORT THE PODCAST

Go to our Patreon page. Decide how much you want to pledge every week, $1, $5, $10. Make sure to cap how much you want to spend per month. Keep listening to the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast to celebrate Celtic culture through music.

WELCOME IRISH & CELTIC MUSIC MINI PODCAST

I?m Marc Gunn, and I launched a Kickstarter for the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast on Thursday. I want this launch to be super successful. So I?m gonna give you a 6-Pack Mini episode to inspire you to make a pledge. The campaign only goes for two weeks. I?m gonna bring you an extra mini episode every 2-3 days plus, the main show which comes out every Thursday.

I?ll tell you more about what?s on the album in a moment. 

You can find a link to all of the artists in the shownotes, along with show times, when you visit our website at celticmusicpodcast.com

Album Pins - CLOSING

I hope you enjoyed the show. One of the main things I?m funding with this campaign is an Album Pin. Album pins are lapel pins. But each album pin is themed to a specific CD. So when you own the album pin, you?ll also get the associated album, so you can wear your album on your sleeve.

This year?s design reminded me of my compilation, The Secret World of Celtic Rock, that I released at the start of 2005. So I decided to use that as an excuse to re-release the physical CD as well. So you?re gonna get the album and the enamel pin if you choose that reward. 

There are lots of other rewards to check out. Follow my link at celticmusic.org/celticrock to make a pledge.

Bruce Thompson replied to the Celtic Music Magazine from Columbus, Ohio: "Hello Marc, Thank you for curating Celtic and Irish music for us with your podcast every week. My wife and I listen to your podcast every time we're in the car. And I listen at work.

On St. Patty's Day we usually go to a good Irish bar for some Guinness and shepherd's pie and sometimes Bangers and Mash, depending on when we get there. A few years ago we were lucky enough to go to Great Britain, Ireland and Scotland; a great 10 day vacation.

Last week (Saturday) was our Dublin, Ohio's St. Patricks Day parade and we always go to the Dublin Irish Festival in August. Our favorite bands are Gaelic Storm, We Banjo 3 and Eileen Ivers. It was a thrill to be there and listen to these amazing musicians. The Dublin Irish Festival is ALWAYS a great time!

Thanks again for sharing your musical talent, and creating such a wonderful listening experience! Slainte to you too, Marc!"

William Fisher emailed: "Usually I'm working on the computer listening to your podcast but I download to a portable player so I can listen in the car or whenever... For St Padraig's Day, The Irish social group I belong to is part of a day - long celebration in William's Park, St Petersburg FL. with music, food and games : - )"

Rebekah Hedstrom replied to the Celtic Music Magazine: "Usually driving while listening.  We are going to have a quiet St Paddy's day this year.  Corned beef and staying at home.  :0)"

Brian McReynolds sent you a message on Patreon: "Just got the shirt I ordered and the bonus shirt. Thank you. I love them both. I think I will wear the new one tomorrow and the 2016 shirt Friday. Oh, and an early happy birthday to you. ?"

Dennis McCarthy emailed some St Patrick's Day photos. He wrote: "Hope that you like these."

Daniel Faigin emailed: "Well, first, I'd like to encourage you to go back to putting the show number in the show title. It helps with how I organize things in iTunes.

What are you doing while listening? Generally, it is on in the background while I work, after I play off that day's playlist (not listened to in 3 years). If a song particularly captures my ear, I look up the artist and either purchase an album from them, or add it to my Amazon wish list. Found a number of great groups that way, through not only this podcast, but Mostly Folks and the Woodsongs podcast."

Go to MageNetwork.com for more podcasts.

PNiceberg emailed: "Hi Marc, Thanks for all your hard work and efforts. What are you doing while listening? Either working or out walking my dog and enjoying the fresh sounds of your show! I am listening to more Celtic music as well as trying my hand again at learning to play bagpipes!!!"

Patrick Rieger emailed a photo and wrote: "Hi Marc, I have been listening to your podcast for years, having learned about it back in 2006 when you mentioned it on the Renaissance Festival podcast.

Today I was listening to the Irish and Celtic Music podcast while airbrushing a small model of the starship Enterprise - D, and enjoying the early renaissance festival weather we were having here in Pittsburgh.

I help promote Irish and Celtic culture by being an admin on the Facebook page, Celtic Pittsburgh, created by my friend and Irish musician, Susan Borowski, to spread the word about any events regarding Irish and Celtic culture in western Pennsylvania. Before that, I made the Facebook event for the late Terry Griffith, for his monthly show at Mullaney's Harp & Fiddle Irish Pub in Pittsburgh.

Thank you for the many years of music and I look forward to many more."

TRAVEL WITH CELTIC INVASION VACATIONS

Every year, I take a small group of Celtic music fans on the relaxing adventure of a lifetime. We don't see everything. Instead, we stay in one area. We get to know the region through its culture, history, and legends. You can join us with an auditory and visual adventure through podcasts and videos.

In 2023, we?re going on a Celtic Invasion of County Mayo in Ireland. We?re gonna explore the area and get to know Grace O?Malley, the Pirate Queen. Learn more about the invasion at http://celticinvasion.com/

I WANT YOUR FEEDBACK

What are you doing today while listening to the podcast? You can take a screenshot of the podcast on your phone. You can send a written comment along with a picture of what you're doing while listening. Or how about a picture you took of a band that you saw.

Email me at celticpodcast@gmail, message me on Facebook, or contact me through Mastodon @[email protected].

What other podcasts do you listen to?

brennan donnelly replied to the question of what he's doing while listening: "Everything  -  from working to gardening to riding in my car." On St Patrick's Day he planned to be "cooking Salmon for friends than having a session"

Jeremy King of Poitin said: "Hey Marc, I'm off to Vienna this St Pat's weekend -  I'm sure there are one or two Irish pubs there. But really I'm going for a concert of film music by Pilsen Philharmonic Orchestra and strolling around the beautiful old city...."

Anne emailed: "I most often listen while I?m driving. On St. Patrick?s Day I?ll eat out for a special Irish meal."

Gary Randolph said: "I?m doing a storytelling performance for St. Patrick?s Day."

Connie Kiefiuk emailed: "I am finishing an embroidery project while listening to the podcast. For St. Patrick's day cooking a traditional corned beef, cabbage, carrots, onion and potatoes meal. I am eating my homemade dinner with a glass (or two) of Guinness Stout wearing my green and watching "The Quiet Man" movie. Love your podcasts. I'm a newbie, discovered your program this past summer."

Shel O'Toole emailed: "Dear Marc, Thanks for sending out this song on ANZAC day.  The words of the returned soldier M Edgerley would be powerful enough on their own but when presented by the wonderful voices of Jonny Dyer and Vicki Swan and their musical accompaniment they are deeply felt.  I was moved to tears.

I tend to avoid ANZAC Day as it seems to have become a promotion of war rather than a remembrance of the horrors and loss.  This song took me back to when I was a child and the purpose of ANZAC day was to acknowledge the futility and ongoing impact of war.

This Aussie thanks you. Regards"

Brian McReynolds sent a picture: "So on my (local) travels, I wore my podcast shirt with my kilt while touring the B Reactor on the Hanford Nuclear Site in Washington State. It was well received by a tour guide and one of the people on the tour. Love your podcast and everything you do for the artists. ''

Tom Morley emailed around St Patrick's Day: "Marc, Our Chattanooga - based band Stringer's Ridge played a concert on St. Patrick's Day at the John C. Campbell Folk School in Brasstown, NC. (I am there on the faculty at the famous folk arts school usually once a year teaching beginning or intermediate Irish Fiddle.) We had a wonderful crowd and it was a great way to spend the best Irish day of the year! I am enclosing several photos of us at the historic Keith House where we put on the concert. (Tom Morley - fiddle, Fran Morley - bodhran, Bryant Haynes - guitar)

Thanks for all you do to promote Irish trad music!"

Marilyn S. Hansen sent a photo about Easter Rising Band: "14 seminarians got together years ago in St. Louis and developed an Irish band. Most of them are married now. They play at each other?s weddings, but they also have regular gigs. The interesting part is how their kids take part? This is last year?s celebration. I was out of town this year celebrating my sister?s birthday the day before St. Patrick?s Day. Thought I?d send you last year?s photo. I?ll send you a few that they?ve sent to me for this year.

Pete Watson emailed St Pat's photos: "Hi Marc, The Bookends had a fabulous time playing a number of shows throughout Ontario around St. Patrick's Day.Attached is a photo of Miriam (left) and Cait (right) on St. Paddy's Day for our gig at The Rec Room, Toronto, with our regular special guest bodhrán player extraordinaire, Romano Di Nillo.Romano is just back from 4+ years with Come From Away on Broadway and we were so glad to have him with us for these shows.The venue was handing out some "paddywhackery" to attendees and these 3 couldn't resist putting some on!"

Bruce Cummings, a Piper emailed a photo: "Hey Marc!Just to say how much I enjoy listening to the Celtic music you provide. You asked for pictures from St. Patrick's Day 2023, so here's a couple. I am part of the Lane Fire Brigade Pipes and Drums in Eugene Ore. We had a great weekend piping in the area.Keep up the good work!"

Jim O'Connor of Boston Blackthorne emailed a photo: "Hi Marc -hope you had a fabulous holiday!

Boston Blackthorne played 3 nights in Western MA, centered around St Patrick?s Day as well as the big parade (the nation?s oldest) in Holyoke MA.We played to crowded enthusiastic fans in Northampton MA and Holyoke MA.But perhaps the best gig (and story) was the one that arose spontaneously back in the lobby of our hotel after our St Pat?s evening show.

The hotel lobby is most frequently empty but this night is was crowded with about 100 boisterous folks from Minnesota, visiting Massachusetts to support a Women?s college Hockey team.

We were approached by the unofficial spokesperson who pointed at our guitar and fiddle and asked, ?Can you really play those??

I answered of course we can, and this is your lucky night!Not only has your party been invaded by musicians, we are an Irish band and this is St Patrick?s Day! We proceeded to unpack our instruments and did a set of singalongs like Charlie on the MTA for the Boston connection.Halfway through the set our wives came into the lobby -my wife grumbled to Pete?s wife, ?This party is going to keep us up all night!?Pete?s wife Maureen looked a little closer and exclaimed, ?Hey that?s Jim and Pete in the center of it all!?They joined the fray, we had the best gig of the year playing for this group of strangers from the Midwest, wonderful folks who doubtless went home with a great tale and the definition of the work ?Craic!?

I had such a fantastic time on my Celtic Invasion of County Mayo. I kept a personal blog on the trip that I?ll publish in the coming weeks. You can also find pictures scattered across my different profile pages.

If you?re thinking of going, I think my favorite things were the cliffs on Achill Island. There were some stunning views. And my absolute favorite was Downpatrick Head. There were more stunning views, but there was a blowhole that went under the cliffs which made it interesting to see too.

Next month, I?m launching a Kickstarter for the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast. I?m raising money for some album pins to promote the show. I would really LOVE your support.

You can follow the Kickstarter campaign through the website.

Richard Medaugh emailed photos:

Rising A Pint of Guinness at the Gaelic League  -  Irish American Club in Detroit, Michigan on Saint Pádraig Day 2023 ? Sláinte

Russ Gaudet emailed photos: "Hello there, Yes the Knights of Columbus had a very successful St Patrick's Day dinner and dance at our Church in Middleton, NS

Here are a couple of pictures to prove it. Cheers"

Ann Peck McBride emailed photos: "My Ceili group, Ceili of the Valley, here in Salem Oregon, has a "walkabout" every St Patrick's Day, complete with the Willamette Valley Pipes and Drums. Everyone wears green and has a good time!"

Caz of Crikwater emailed photos: ?Marc, Thanks for reaching out?Happy belated St Patrick?s Day!  we have a bunch of pics from last weekend.  Buffalo,NY goes all out for the High Holy days?we have 2 huge parades!!!!(and two irish fests over the summer) ..one parade on Saturday through the Old Irish Neighborhood and one on Sunday through the middle of Downtown?so that results in a BIG Party weekend with LOTS of gig opportunities?

We played 16 shows in three weeks in March (all on weekends)..Last weekend alone we played 7 gigs in 72hrs!!!

NOBODY in the music biz works harder than Irish musicians in the month of March!!! Hup! I?m attaching a few pics for you.?

CRIKWATER Pic 1?We played KeyBank Arena at an NHL game to a crowd of 19,000  -  pregame & between periods of the Sabres v Bruins on Sunday 3/19

CRIKWATER Pic 5?75 Stutson Street with our good friends Dady & Ryan in Rochester,NY..sold out

I got a private message from Bob on Patreon which I felt needed addressing in a public format:

?Marc: I am going to end my Patreon sponsorship of your podcast. The cursing on your podcasts irritates me and I don't think it syncs up with celebrating Irish culture nor a fun, family oriented atmosphere.

One example: the Magic Dragon podcast  -  -  Forkroot "Coyotes at the Dump" from Water & Shade, about 20:16 mark.

So rather than me being irritated and you being irritated at my reaction, I'll wish you the best, but I sure don't get where you are going.?

I did respond to Bob?s comment, but I thought I?d address it here too. I did catch that explicit word in Forkroot?s song. Unfortunately, I was not listening closely to songs right before I headed out on vacation. They were the type of band that I did not expect to hear foul language from. So yes, I messed up.

I am terribly sorry for anyone who had to endure the explicit language. As you should know, I do my best to keep episodes of the podcast family - friendly. And as I told Bob, if you ever hear explicit language on the show, please please email me ASAP so that I can correct that error. I rely on your generosity to help me catch these problems.

I caught the language problem a day after the show went live and removed the song from the public version of the show. I left it in the Music - Only episode on Patreon, but that song was removed, also from the Celtic Top 20.

SHARE ANY PICTURES FROM YOUR BAND

??Luke Miller said: "Hi Marc, For St. Patrick's day Kathleen and I are both taking the day off work. We are going to spend most of the day at a local Irish Pub that is having live music all day including the band Beltaine which has been on the podcast. That night we are seeing The Gothard Sisters in concert."

Bart Creedon emailed: "Hello Marc  -  1. Living the life of Reilly, since I was fortunate enough to be able to retire last July. 2. I'll sport a little green, consume a little Guinness and look to stay out of too much trouble.  3. I've been listening to Delia Murphy's recordings.  My curiosity was piqued having encountered a fictionalized version of her in Joseph O'Connor's "My Father's House", a novel primarily about Hugh O'Flaherty's exploits during WWII in Nazi - occupied Rome.  I also discovered that Joseph O'Connor is brother to Sinead O'Connor, one of my favorite Irish singers. Thanks for asking."

DawnMarie Sharit replied: "I listen while I am doing tedious work, because it gets done so much faster, and I typically have a huge smile on my face, if not a wistful tear in my eye!"

Kelly Frenette replied to my email: "Let's see.... Of course I'd love a bonus episode! What are you doing while listening? Wood turning, resin casting or driving. I'm keeping my ancestry alive and remembering the celtic history. I always have it playing in the background while I work."

Nate Morefield emailed some St Patrick's Day pictures: "Hey Marc, pictures are still trickling in, but attached are a few from 3/17 and 3/18.

In terms of funny material, maybe our tune Another Drink might qualify?  It's about a guy who's missing his ex, but mostly because he needs her to fix him another drink...  Just a thought."

Ben Doran emailed a St Pat's photos: "Hello Marc, thanks for the invite to share photos. Here's a couple from the Friday night Wild Hog in the Woods Folk Collective's St. Patrick's Bash -  -  featuring myself, Lisa Johnson (as Leafy Greens), and friends Casey Day and Greg Matysik.

And for funny songs? We there's Makem/Spain  Bros. "Mr. La DeDaDeDum", but a big bully for you if you can find the rare, "The Second Hand Trouser's I bought in Belcoo" written by Martin McConnell, I believe (brother to the excellent columnist/story teller, Cormac McConnell).

Slan go foill."

Melissa Wade of Wild Blue Yonder emailed some photos: "Great to hear from you, Marc! We did have a good  -  and very busy  -  St. Patrick's Day! We played three shows in three days, traveling through wind, rain and cold to several different towns. Happy belated birthday to you, as well!!

Attached are a few pics from our celebrations. The posed shot is at Anakeesta Mountaintop Adventure Park in Gatlinburg, where we played on St. Patrick's Day. Taking our Irish Celtic music high up in the Great Smoky Mountains to entertain for the holiday was most fitting and special. And while the howling wind and blowing rain were less than pleasant, they gave us the sense of actually being in Ireland!

Thanks again for writing, and for all you do for Celtic musicians! We love your show."

Sean Malloy of Band o'Brothers emailed a photo: "Hey Marc!  Happy Belated Birthday & St. Patrick?s Day!  Hope you had a wonderful time and a wonderful gig with your daughters.

Attached is a picture of Band O?Brothers as we prepared to roll through the streets of New Haven in the St. Patrick?s Day parade.  We had a blast playing out songs for the joyful people along the parade route, and after we completed the parade route we even stopped our float outside a neighborhood bar to play a few songs for the revelers.  We had a great day!"

Scott F. sent St Patrick's Day pictures of Ockham's Razor: "Hey Marc, I got a few of Ockham?s Razor but I was too busy running sound to get too many more."

Raven Lunatric with Ancient Order of Hibernians sent a photo of them in the parade.

GERALD GUINN emailed photos: Hi Marc!  Hope your holiday was a joyous one as well!! I'm attaching a pic of the audience from our St. Patrick's show in Murfreesboro, TN, and one from the County Sumner Irish Festival that we played during this St. Patrick's season.

Funny songs? Well, from our "Lager & Blood" album, I think "Irish Rover", "The Johnny Jump Up", "The Devil that You Know", and of course, "The Old Dun Cow" are all potential candidates!"

Karl Smith emailed some photos: "Hey Marc! I've taken a few pics on my drive home while listening but never actually got to sending it in. So here's some that are halfway decent. I typically listen on my Friday drive home, it's the perfect soundtrack to a drive through the boonies of coastal Northern California. Finally signed up for the patreon after years of free music. Thanks for all you do! And happy st Patrick's day!"

David Doersch emailed a St Patrick's Day photo: "Hey Marc, Here you go. Eireann?s Call performing at Boxi Park, Orlando, FL."

Anne Roos emailed: "Hi Marc! This is an older photo, but fun just the same:

Wish I had a funny Celtic song to share with you. Alas, I do not. I hope you?ll include some funny jokes in the show, too.

Thank you for asking. I appreciate you keeping in touch : - )"

Rene St.Aubin emailed a photo: "Here I was sharing Irish music in the Toronto area in Ontario Canada"
