Saturday...
...
Bone & I will be celebrating St. Patrick's Day because that's the day AOH
celebrates it.
The
Ancient Order of Hiberians is old school but has fallen on hard times. Membership has shrunken and their lovely thatch home has been taken away from them. Will we stay faithful to them or celebrate the day at the big blarney bash on the 17th? (The answer is we'll stay faithful, kudos to Bone). The AOH'rs are now vagabonds, holding St. Pat's Day in a (nearly) undisclosed location a week early, the latter presumably because their musical beau, the
Hooligans, won't sacrifice high-paying gigs on the 17th. (AOH without the Hooligans is like Johnnie without the Walker Red). By the end of the Hooligans's set, their litany of “God Bless Ireland” and “Give Ireland Back to the Irish” is nearly unbearable for its intensity and one can not sing loudly enough to disperse the adrenalin that accrues in your veins.
