ATTN Celtic Musicians. I’m looking for some good stories to share. You see, I also host the Pub Songs Podcast. I started sharing stories from musicians about their songs. I’d like to do more of those. So if you have a story that you’d like to share about a song, from a gig, or maybe even just a piece of Celtic history that you love. Drop me an email at [email protected]. Put “Pub Story” in the show subject. Tell me about your story. Maybe I’ll ask you to record your story for the show.

It helps me get through the traffic, which can be crazy sometimes. Right now, I’m fighting pneumonia & have been mostly in bed for the last week. The podcast cheers me up & helps keep me going. Thank you so much."

Kenn Brooks emailed: "I very much enjoy your Irish and Celtic Music Podcast. I share it often."

Jarrod Reynolds responded to an email questionaire: "Hey Marc, Yeah I had no issues getting the music. My favorite Celtic bands/Artists: Irish Rovers, the Dubliners, Enya, Albannach, Uncle Hamish and the Hooligans, Off Kilter, Ronan Harriman, to name a few. There so many that I like. Having both Scottish and Irish as one of my ancestral lines, i am that much more proud of my heritage. I even own a spots kilt in my Scottish clan. I am currently saving up to own a wool kilt in one of the Irish county tartans. Thanks for what you are doing to spread Irish and Celtic music out. Slainte"
