Anna & Paddy’s Wedding
Back on the road last night for the first time in nearly five weeks! That’s longest that we’ve ever went without playing since we started the band! One of Anna and Paddy’s wedding guests inspired this blog title, as he asked us to play Rick Astley’s Never Gonna Give You Up! We’re not sure if we’ve ever played it in the disco before, and if we have it’s been a long time! So, as it was a bit unusual for us, we thought that would sort the blog title! (apologies for the crap header pic, we couldn’t find anything else!…

Grainne & Sean’s Wedding
We were back on the road for the first time in three weeks last night, and it felt like three months! January must be getting to us, as we couldn’t think of one of our usual weird blog titles! lol So, we had to just go with a predictable one for a change…

Lindsey & Wayne’s Wedding
We were on the road again last night for our first Sunday wedding of the year! It also was our last wedding of the year too! We’re back out again in The Royal Hotel in Cookstown for their end of year party, but as it was our last wedding, we thought we’d go for a predictable title for a change…

Ashlene & Brian’s Wedding
We finished our week in County Cavan on Saturday night, and our way down there was a massive and really bright moon in the sky! So, as our blog titles are always really weird, we couldn’t resist going with a really cheesy one this time! Please forgive us…

Colleen & Johnny’s Wedding
We had our third and final wedding of the week on Saturday night, thanks to Colleen and Johnny for inviting us along. Their choice of first dance inspired this blog title. They had chosen Rascal Flatt’s brilliant ‘Bless the Broken Road’, so we thought we’d go a wee bit more predictable than normal with the blog title…

Nicola & Declan’s Wedding
Our never ending series of weird blog titles continue! This one was inspired by last night’s bridal party. We quite often call the bridal party half way through the first dance, as more and more couples prefer that nowadays. Normally they come to the floor and the bridesmaids dance with the guys in the bridal party. However, last night they all came on and formed a circle with Nicola and Declan (the bride and groom), and everybody danced with their arms around each others shoulders! Maybe we’re getting soppy in our old age, but it was really lovely to watch…

Tracey & Darrell’s Wedding
As most people know, last week was a massive sporting week for Ireland, with The Open being held in Portrush! We heard there were tens of thousands of tourists coming for the event, but didn’t expect to see any staying as far away as Letterkenny! We met a bus in the hotel car park, so that was our blog title inspiration sorted…

Brenda & Tony’s Wedding
Brenda and Tony’s choice of first dance inspired this blog title. They picked Coldplay’s fantastic Sky Full of Stars for their first dance. As far as we recall it’s the first time a couple have picked it for a first dance, and it definitely was a great choice! Definitely a pumping tune to start the night…

Orlagh & Kevin’s Wedding
There’s a bit of a rally theme for this post! We were chatting to Orlagh’s stepdad Raymond when we arrived, and he was full of the craic! Amongst the banter, he was telling us that he was a big rally fan, and that he actually used to be a navigator! Cheers Raymond, that sorted our typically unusual blog title…

Ciara & Darren’s Wedding
We were back in our favourite Donegal wedding venue last night: the stunning An Grianan Hotel! Thanks to Ciara and Darren for inviting us along to help them celebrate their big day.

Lisa & Kieran’s Wedding
We were back in Cookstown for the second night in a row on Saturday: nice to be close to home yet again! :) Thanks to Lisa and Kieran for inviting us to play at their wedding reception in the Royal Hotel.

The hotel had the place looking great for them, and all the seating laid out perfectly for all the guests…

Happy Easter everyone! We survived Sunday’s chocolate overload, and were back on the road again yesterday evening.
