We talked to the folks in the pub and they confirmed that Dirk Powell is around and he is coming to play on Tuesday 29th of February at the usual session time - about 9.30 pm. The spot is The Corner House at Coburg street, Cork city.

Great news huh? ;D ;D I'll be there!

Lucky, Lucky you Susi.

I took a Fiddle class with him at the Open House Festival in Belfast a couple of years ago & he came over as a decent bloke & a hell of a musician, so you are in for a treat.
(Hmmmmm .... wonder what the bus fare is from Belfast to Cork! )

Don't forget to tell us how the gig goes!

Cheers
Dick
