While it isn't technically Irish, this event looks too cool to pass up. The High Desert Museum is putting on a show at the Tower involving historic clothing, dance, and music styles this Friday, May 13th. It's all about how things changed from the boom of the 20s to the depression in the 30s and how it affected people in Bend, Oregon. Terpsichorean Dance Studio is supplying the dancers, so expect nothing but the best!
Admission is $15 + $2 historical restoration fee. The event starts at 7:00, and is located at the Tower Theatre in Bend, Oregon. The address is 835 NW Wall St, Bend, OR 97701.

Gaelic Storm is a wonderful Irish/Celtic, sometimes-trad, sometimes-not-trad band. You might know them as the band in the third class compartment from the movie Titanic. I (Shannon) was introduced to them while I was still living in Salem. Now, 5 years later, going to their concerts whenever they come through Oregon has become a yearly tradition. They're one of my favorite bands and they put on a great live show. This year they're coming to the Aladdin Theater in Portland, Oregon. Doors open at 7pm and the music starts at 8pm. Tickets are still available and they're $25 in advance and on the day of the show. Griff and I will be there. Hope to see some of you in the audience too! So, if you missed out on getting to see Na Rósaí last week, you have another chance! Ceili of the Valley is hosting them for a Celtic New Year concert in Salem at 7pm on October 17th at the VFW Hall (630 NE Hood Street Salem, OR). Tickets are sold at the door only. It's $15 for adults, $10 for students, and kids 10 and under are free. If you'd like to know more about Na Rósaí, their website is here. The link to the Facebook event for the concert is here. It looks like great fun, so check it out if you can! Sam Keator's 2nd Saturday Community Concert series is kicking off this year with Na Rósaí, a trad (traditional) band that plays Irish, Scottish, Appalachian and Breton music. They sound really fun (you can listen to some of their music here). The concert is on October 10th at 7:30pm at Winona Grange #271 8340 SW Seneca Street in Tualatin, OR. For more information here's the Facebook event. And here's the link for tickets. |
