Face the puck out
My mum Sandra Brady (Christy super fan, from Crumpsall, Manchester) turns 60 today. She is here with her family to celebrate.
She regularly frequented the Old House at Home, where I believe you started your illustrious career.
A shout out would be so appreciated tonight. Looking forward to your concert, best of luck.

I got my first “real” gig in The Old House at Home back in 1966 ( back of the Icky works)… Mike Harding ran a Sunday night Folk Club with his Wife Pat….I could not have hoped for a better start to my full time singing life….by my reckoning Sandra would have been a year old then…hope all you Brady gang have a good night tonight in the Gleneagle Arena…its a great venue and Killarney has always been a hive of buzzing hospitality…even the horses wear nappies and the Gondolas are fed all winter by the Healy Raes….I’m still in touch with Mike Harding…I recorded a beautiful poem of his on my last album… he wrote “Sunflowers” after Putin invaded Ukraine
This is all I could find – no poster available from the WWW.
