Myself and Paul Brady in 2004

This is a picture from my homecoming concert at Liberty Hall in 2004 with Paul Brady. The whole concert was broadcast on RTE in two parts and is still available for listening. You can find the link for the first part here, and the second part here. The event happened on Thursday, October 21st, 2004 with a full house that included the Prime Minister of Ireland, An Taoiseach Bertie Ahern. Guests included: Seán Keane, Paul Brady, Seán Potts, Seán Óg Potts, Kevin Conneff and The Castle Céilí Band. All proceeds went to the Irish Centre, Camden Town. Ciaran Hanrahan MC-ed the great event.

Dangan Castle in Ballynacally County Clare

This is a photograph from the 1950s that I took as a little boy on a Kodak 128 point-and-shoot box camera of the back field behind my aunt's house--the O'Tooles. The ruins are called Dangan Castle in Ballynacally.
