MUSIC

If you haven’t heard some music 

lately, say, “Uh oh!”  Maybe your 

soul has become sour - and you’ve 

forgotten what music can do for you.

Walk down city streets, step into 

some local pub or tavern, and by 

chance you might hear enough music - 

to fill your soul and  quench your spirit.

If it’s in a pub, don’t forget to clap - 

even if you don’t know what language 

the song is being sung in. If it’s being 

sung on the street, put a penny or a dollar in.

In the YouTube video above,

 you'll hear 4 Gaelic Singers. 

The third one - in white - 

is Caitrinona Ni Churraoin - 
[Catherine Curran in English]

my cousin Kathleen's daughter - 

and still some people think 

Costello is an Italian Name.
The Crane Bar/ Pub
is on Sea Road,
Galway, Ireland
a couple of stone
throws from Ballynahown - 
where my mom  and dad are from.
