Episode 254: Fresh Batch of Soap
Manage episode 391680472 series 2510254
This one was recorded en route to our gig at Kelly's Irish Pub in Austin, and again on the way home, with Patrick daughter's Tara running camera and joining in the conversation.
Towards the end of the first segment we encountered a torrential downpour that got so loud we had to stop recording. It was still raining when we arrived at Kelly's, and the wooden stage area was exposed to the elements and completely soaked through. But thankfully the bar manager allowed us to commander the covered area of the patio.
There were hints online that the turnout that night would be good, but we were still knocked out by how many people showed up, especially considering the weather… and by the time we started playing it was standing room only and packed to the gills. This was the first gig we'd played in Austin since Fadó closed in 2018, so it was quite a thrill to see so many old friends and familiar faces, and of course all our new friends as well.
Chris Buckley joined us on fiddle for this show and did a FANTASTIC job. Also, towards the end of the show, Tara joined us to sing "Fairytale of New York", which made the night even more special.
In between the two segments is a bit of video that Turbo filmed from the stage shortly after we'd all raised a toast, where you can see how jam-packed the patio was at Kelly's.
Cheers to you all....HAPPY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
