Back in 2001. Stayed at the Park Hotel, in Virginia, County Cavan. Beautiful place.

My mother and her sister made it to Ireland, but their timing sucked. They went during a pub strike.

I'm glad the video is available now. A few years back, all I could find to post was the lyrics.

I remembered the song from seeing Kennedy perform it once either in Washington, D.C. or one of the Irish pubs in Arlington, Virginia, and buying one of his CDs. His show was hilarious!

I must be a bit sauced tonight, I've had this post up all day and didn't realize I had misspelled "Patrick's."

Then I realized....no one has corrected me all day....you lot must be as twisted as I am.....Happy St. Patty's!

It's the thought that counts, and we knew what you meant.
