I've heard a few things in the past month that make me wonder if Columbus is starting to lose interest in Irish traditional music: 1. The AOH session has died...

The AOH session "died" when the AOH lost their $$$$ and their club on Main Street. The Shamrock Club has been hosting a traditional session one Friday night...
... Chords ... the ... Dublin Irish Festival <soapbox mode> I wouldn't be at all surprised at anything the Dublin Irish Festival (henceforth - DIF) did in...
I think you just blew off all of the local Irish bands as rock bands since they all play at the Dublin festival. Seriously, there are only 2-4 "celtic rock"...
The Irish are very multi-dimensional and so is our music. I, personally prefer Trad but will listen to it all. Enjoy it all or bits & pieces, but respect the...
Hi, Inresponse to Sara's comment: Just for clarification for the uninformed, the AOH session (the 2nd friday of the month) *did* continue past losing their...

I believe a local Comhaltas would be great. A few of us had discussed it before. It's just too huge of a time comittment for some of us at this time....
If a Columbus or central Ohio CCE branch existed, that would probably would be a very good thing. But I think there are some issues that you (we) might want...
Hi Larry and all, One brief thing and one lengthly thing: First is that Croabh Riley is actually a CCE group. Secondly, I myself have competed in several...
Charlene - I'm definitely interested in finding out more about the Fleadh Cheoil. Can you send me some Web sites, or point me in the right direction. I really...
Hi, Fleadh Cheoil is pronounced Flah (like the "a" in flat) kyol (like the "o" in gold). It is quite late this year--May 14-15. It will be sponsored by the...
Hello, Very glad to hear the mid west competition will again be in Cincinnati ( well actually across the river in Ky) As a Riley student, I volunteered last...
Thanks for the response, Charlene. It does help. Here's what I gleaned from your post: a) A CCE branch could be a good thing b) It's time consuming I agree...
