Happy Friday and Happy Saint Patrick's Day everybody!

Greetings to Himself MCGORDON.And all his boyos. And lassies.Cead Milte Failte.

I am having a flashback!

Hi Patrick, love it!

Russ, you're not twerking again, are you?

Hi Jerry, Happy Friday at St Patrick's to you

Hi Rob, backatcha!

Just realized the melody, love these not overly apparent covers!

Hi DSM, we're trying to be subtle here!

Hey Jerry, happy Friday to all!

Hey Jerry, DSM, Rob F, and Russell ☘️

We are definitely going Irish in Jerry's Room today, or we can call it Paddy's Room today

No, I am tretired.

Hi Christine!

Consultants for today's Paddy's Room were Russ & Patrick!

Can’t believe they named a holiday after me .What an honor☘️🇮🇪

I just read this second that one should only refer to Paddy if their name is Patrick. So we're back to Jerry's Room

Yes, Patrick, you get all the acolades today!

Happy Saint You day, @Patrick

Looking forward to the Third Hour tribute to that noted Irish Chanteuse ……Mrs.Miller

Hahaha

Christine, you made Patrick's day!

Thanks Christine He who wears the crown something something burden.

Here for the new Dhafer Youssef 🗣📢

Hi Dave, this guy goes directly into the Hall Of Fame

I know I said this last week, but I hope Dhafer Youssef has some East Coast concert dates in the future.

He has never missed on a single note, track or album

DSM, that song is in your DNA

Hello hello. only a few hours until Guinness time

I was wondering if ou had started already, Brian!

Theme song time!!

It is officially Friday afternoon now. 🐦🎶

Woah, that Jay Hoggard piece! It definitely raised my consciousness!

About time!

That was cool also that Jay Hoggard recorded the station ID.

Nice man

Dhafer and Kendrick Scott both fantastic

Glad you liked them, Rob

Shoop do wah

This track is so good👍

Should be a great show.

Danny Boy

Nothing like Bill

Brian, get your Gaelic together

for the next hour

Did someone say pass the garlic?

a ligean ar dul!

I dig Bill Evans!!

They're all coming out now!

No, it's Gaelic! Hi Mike, Mok!

✌️

Hey Boyo!

I have no idea on how to pronounce Irish (some may call it Gaelic). Throw out all ideas on how to pronounce it...

👏 Russell & Patrick

Thanks for the jazz portion of the show!

Thank you, Rob, for enjoying it

I believe that most people in that land just call the language "Irish"

🎩🍀🌈💰

Burke rhymes with twerk.

hahaha

Mok, are all those icons on an iPhone?

im on Windows here

Suggested listening: Bothy Band "self titled aka ' 1975' " and "Old Hag You Have Killed Me". And "Andy Irvine/Paul Brady". And "The Wishing Tree" by John Doyle, John McCusker & Mike McGoldrick.

Thank you, Brian

@Brian. Stay tuned.

dont leave out Planxty

The Irish Rover song will be heard a few times today at a certain bar / restaurant in Penndel, Pa (you can guess the name of the place)

is the rover still open?

This is making my throat hurt

And of course The Pogues! And The Saw Doctors. And Wolfe Tones. Clancy Bros and Tommy Makem of course.

Russ, this is hysterical!

The Rover opened at 10am today. My friend has a photo to prove it. They moved a short distance "around the corner" maybe 15 years ago. The old Casimiri's restaurant by the rxr tracks.

Is this about reels on tik tok?

I'll mention my favorite Irish band, Horslips

Larry Kirwan singling here has a great bio book Green Suede Shoes

This is a fine one

Hi Jerry, getting to the show a little late today. Thanks for helping to celebrate my heritage on the big day!

Has a great program on Satellite Radio "Celtic Crush"

I was getting ready to write that I know you used to listen to this

, Mike

My old band opened up for Black 47 at John and Peter's 20 years ago or so. Larry K was really nice. We covered this Waterboys song often. And we did it that night.

That's great, Stephen. Happy St. Patrick's Day! I"m loving it!

my green celebration is going to be different from most. It will involve Leroy Sibbles, Sly Dunbar, Peter Tosh..

Hence... the bluntmaster

Larry from Black 47 hosts tours to Ireland. Yearly trips.

He's got to be fun

This is an "alternate" take

What a nice thing you said, Stephen!

Infectious istening to Larry spin yarns ya . Don't have satellite radio anymore. Miss his show. He played from all decades old and new and across many seas. Loosely defined Celtic in the title of his show

The track "Billy O'Shea" from that Wishing Tree lp is wonderful

Loving the show! That Waterboys tune is my fav by them! I have this Chieftans CD...wore the dang thing out, played it so much. I think they have a Christmas version where Van the Man sings the lyrics to it.

one of my fave tunes and groups, thanks Jerry, J

Hi Jim, I'm glad! Happy St. Patrick's Day!

here you go, Mike

Yes!!

Book Of Invasions is one hell of an album

I will acquire

Mary Black ☘️

Boys of the Lough ! The one i forgot to list earlier.

SHANE!

Corduroy britches, digging ditches....

"Shane Spit on Me" t shirts / bumper stickers....

Great job today Jerry.You are honorary member of AOh 000 Slainte

Love it, thank you Patrick!

Great show Jerry! May a mighty wind be at our backs...

Love it

This is the real deal here

Thanks, Jerry...Sláinte!

I'm listening quietly in the background of my endless meetings today, but thanks for all the great stuff Mr. O'Gordon! I'm especially enjoying the real trad tunes.

Thanks Bud, Brian, Christine

What was the last one Jerry?

Dropkick Murphys-rose tatoo?

No after

The instrumental

Old Hag you have Killed me

Bothy band

Aha!
