Thanks Christy for a great concert.
45 years ago, me and my sister hitchhiked around Ireland. You gave us a lift and tickets to your concert in the National Stadium that evening.
A lot has happened since. I married an Irishman, lived in Dublin for more than 10 years, moved back to Belgium and since 2 years we have a holiday home in Ireland. I got 2 tickets for your concert in the National Concert Hall for my sister’s birthday. We sang along with every song. Thanks a lot for all your songs over the years.
I watched “In Time Donal Lunny” at the Irish Film Festival in Tokyo.
It was a wonderful Nuala O’Connor’s production team, I was moved and saddened at the same time, and tears drop down in my eyes. It’s difficult to put this feeling into words. . .
Christy's reply
greetings Yas….
thanks for sharing news of the film being shown in Tokyo…
its remarkable how our Trad & Folk Music has travelled so well to distant countries..
I regret never having visited Japan….other players have shared their experiences while performing there
I too was deeply moved and saddened when Donal & I performed “Natives” in the film ….but those feelings never shadow the joyful music we played together across the decades that preceded…
always good to get news from the Far East
Well Christy, the 2026 World Cup kicks off tomorrow. Thanks to F.I.F.A. and the likes of Infantino the once ‘beautiful game’ becomes more ugly, greedy, & corrupt by the day. I’ve attended football matches for almost 60 years but I don’t intend to spend a single minute watching this years tournament. Football, stolen from the poor and needy by the rich and greedy. Joxer (along with Jinky & Bestie) would be turning in his grave. 2DC John
