Tomorrow we’re off to Ireland for the fifth time in a row to attend your concert! It’s a wonderful experience every year, traveling from South Tyrol, Italy, to Ireland. I know many people are hoping to hear “The Voyage,” but perhaps you could play a bit of it “just for us” and mention it. I’d love to see Astrid’s face at table 15, second row! After over 27 years of marriage, it’s still a beautiful Voyage with my love, Astrid.
I wish everyone who can be there an unforgettable evening. Music is the most beautiful thing in the world…. See you Monday, Markus
Sunday night…Beggarmen at The Golden Lion,Withington…and a floor spot by C Moore Esq…
And 2025 update…C Moore and B Dylan keep the wheels on fire..where the wind hits heavy on the borderline ..

Christy,
We flew in Sunday from Utah to attend your concert on Monday. It was a fantastic evening! Thank you for such a special experience. We had kept looking for chances to see a concert when we were already here, but they were always sold out, so this time we made the trip using sky miles, with tickets in hand! Good memories!

Hope you are enjoying todays winter Sun in Dun Laoghaire….the east pier was bracing this mornin
Terrific to read that Luka is well and gigging…he’s a rare talent..good on him.
Tonight,Dylan and companeros play in Belfast,followed by gigs around the island…hope it’s ok to ask for a diversion from Christy content here…if any 4711ers get to see ‘ the song and dance man’,it would be great to read reviews/ thoughts here…hope that’s ok.
Thanks
Dave
Christy's reply
he’ll be blowing his Hohner beneath The Black Mountain tonight..then away with him down to The Black Valley to skim stones across the lakes of Killarney…back with him then to The Black Lagoon where he’ll be shuffling over to the Piano at The Point….
Thu Night…Beggarmen at The Crown & Anchor
Maybe you can pass this on to Luka Christy.
I bought four tickets for his gig in Cologne which was cancelled due to his major surgery.
Recently the Karsten Jahnke team let me know the gig has been rescheduled for May 2026, and my tickets were valid. I needed to do nothing…
Well!
I searched high up, low down through my emails, messages, all over the inter and outer net. Could I find the link to my tickets?
At some stage I must have had a sudden rush of blood to the head, and deleted the relevant emails.
Despair.
But no. Last night I emailed the KJ team to tell them of my stupidity, and see if they could help.
Bright and early this morning a new email arrived from the KJ team, with new links to my tickets! And also a wee friendly message.
Fantastic service.
I am sure Luka knows what a good team the KJ group is, but I would like him to hear this wee story, showing just how well they look after his interests here.
And when you did Joxer at the end of your gig the other night, did you rewrite the last line?
’till Troy Parrott got the ball and stuck it in the net!’
COY BIG!
Christy's reply
steady on there Pat….
you want me to drop Ray Houghton ?….
edit a sacred scripture ?
Hey Christy,
After the weekends dramatic football wins I am wondering if you can put pen to paper for your lyrical version of the events. The boys in green lifted everyone out of their seats in great fashion.
Hope all is well
Brendan
Christy's reply
Joxer was conceived two years after Ray Houghton stuck the ball in the back of the net….I’m adfflicted/blest with slow gestation
Dear Christy,
Back in Belgium after a fantastic stay in Dublin.
What a wonderful evening we had!
Nice to see you in such a good health and shape.
A big, very big thank you for playing the voyage and even mentioning our request.
We felt blessed and honoured.
The chocolates are on their way. I will send them to Robbie McNabb, he gave me his adress after the gig.
I wish you and all your loved ones all the best and hope to see you soon.
With love.
Marten en Evelyn.
Christy's reply
I spotted you two love birds in the audience last monday night
Hello Christy,
Hope you are doing ok. I had an abscess on my tooth after bashing my head on the bottom of a swimming pool when I was 15. Hope your antibiotics are as effective as mine were!
Tuam beat, Tuam beet! Rocky Rocky and the girls of Tuam. 💚
Something made me laugh yesterday. A set of guitar strings arrived here. Sleek black packaging. Apparently they
Last Longer. Do not Fade. And. Have a Natural Feel…!!! A real Something for the weekend moment. What will they be like once I actually get into them!?!
That’s a wonderful setlist from Monday night. Terrible Beauty Expanded is still on its way here. It’s decided to walk it.

I broke all my front teeth in a hand ball alley before anti biotics were heard tell of
Hi Christy,
The run seems to be going just grand.
31 feckin’ songs, near on two hours, fair play horse.
Finishing up with Joxer.
I’ld say that went down a treat …
Wouldn’t it be grand to get Wales in Thursday’s draw.
A ferry across for Joxer and the lads.
Maybe our Catherine could declare a once off holiday
for the semifinal in March.
Christ if we win she might have to go a bit further.
And God only knows what would happen if we feckin qualify.
Still November to get through first and then the Crimbo.

Thanks so very much very much for the Raggle Taggle Gypsy request for my pal Eimear . She’s over the moon .

Hi Christy,
Excitement rising in the Murtha household as it’s now less than a month before we travel to Dublin to see you on 15th December at Vicar Street as part of our 52nd wedding anniversary celebrations. We are fortunate to have front row seats again as we did when we celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary with you at Vicar Street 2 years ago. A very special night indeed as you sang the Voyage for us and the crowd joined in. Well the voyage continues. We hope it will for a few more years. Take care. Tom and Vishva Murtha.
Just a quick thanks for the great night at Vicar Street. We had the best time. I hope all 4711ers and all followers of the music keep well. Hopefully the winter will not be too brutal and we all enjoy the 29 shopping days and the fairytale, so see you in 2026. X
Christy's reply
always a joy to see the “lorry-load-a-mots” landing in from Londing…fair play to ye…Sweet Thames Flow Softly
Recently,I found the ‘Long journey home’ CD and realised I’d neglected it for way too long…
What a masterpiece by Paddy Moloney,The Irish Film Orchestra and a stellar cast of musicians/singers.
Recorded in 1997 as a key part of ‘The Irish in America’ project.Orchestral arrangements are akin to O’Riada and integral trad playing and singing blend perfectly
RIP.Paddy ..and Sinead O’Connor ,so stunning on ‘Skibbereen’…especially powerful when the orchestra paused and she takes the song…such a sad loss.
Viva the power of music
Dave
Christy's reply
The late Paddy Moloney made an outstanding contribution to both the legacy and development of Irish Traditional Music….as well as being an accomplished Uilleann Piper, he also created numerous possibilies for legions of other musicians….always a happy man to meet….Paddy was among those few at the right hand of Sean Ó Ríada in the early days of the Irish Music renaissance….
only once did I have the pleasure of working with Paddy…it was a brief collaboration but very memorable…I once witnessed himself and Liam Óg Ó’Flynn play together with duelling chanters..almost forehead to forehead they tore into reel after reel….it was a wild wild session but the music they created for that 15 or 20 still rings around my old soundbox….that was 55 years ago, the night of my Sister’s wedding to the Kildare Flute Player Davoc Rynne
Correction it was 2009* Perth Concert Hall, Usher Hall, Glasgow Concert Hall and Barrowland….
Christy's reply
I’d love another crack at Barrowland….
just love that auld kip
everythin about it
the house crew
rough and ready ruffians
the dressin room with its dettol deoderant

Another mighty night down Thomas St. Loved the selection of songs and the tribute to Wally. Just the other day I was reading your chat archive from 2008.. a four gig Scottish run.. the opening song on the first 3 nights was “So Do I” …. Hey @Patsy, I’m not always so sharp 😄… Read here last week “Sacco & Vanzetti” was back amongst the set and started playing it again.. what a great song..thanks for the prompt sheet! PS great to catch up with some 4711ers..
Christy's reply
Kevin…you saved my bacon last night with your timely, perfectly placed prompt…thank you ,good companero…
I recall that Scottish trip….driving back to Glasgow after the Perth…a Tralee registered SUV passed us at an awful lick….Mick tried to keep with it but thon Kingdom car was taking no prisoners
Hi Christy,
Thanks for another super night in HQ. A really engaging and happy audience that got stuck into with you from the start. Kevin was quick out of the traps with the prompt…. Wonder is he practicing it 🤔.
I came upon your 2019 podcast on the way home… a few stand outs; Natalie Merchants compliment saying you had turned her “Motherland “ into an Irish Folk song. Ceist
What is or was “ Mushin Spam” ( I could have mis-spelled) the you speak about while discussing “Inchicore Wake”.
Best regards.
Ride on.
Patsy.
Christy's reply
Mr Mushatt had a shop in Dublin….he made up his own potions…..one very popular potion was “Mushatt’s Balm”
my Wife Valerie remembers the shop from her childhood….
I think “The Inchicore Wake” is a classic song…the late Pete St John at his very best….I gigged it a few times but it did not seem to click with the listeners….maybe I’ll try it again …..thru singing his song,I got to meet Pete, it was lovely to spend some time with him…..he came to a gig in The National Concert Hall…I sang his song and introduced him to the audience who gave him a standing ovation…..
On your night off,seeing Dylan and companeros,online info indicates that all are on top form. Clever devils are posting audio on YouTube ..fan sites posting great reviews.
Tonight…you in Dublin,Bob in Glasgow…fair play!

he’s still knockin it out

Raggle taggle gypsy if possible please

Good call Des
I enjoyed hookin up with The Raggle again last night
its a great old song
I even found some new lines
Hello Christy, how are you?
It was a gray and rainy saturday but in de Roma the sun was shining. I was there with my two daughters to see your brother. He was in top form and the enthusiasm was great. A fantastic evening. This was exactly what we needed in this troubled world. You know, here in Antwerp the policy used the water cannon against pro-Palestine demonstrators who gathered peacefully on monday.
In Gaza it’s much worse at the moment. If you see the images of the flooded tents. It is already the third winter the are facing and it’s only getting worser. So sad…
Dear christy, I hope you still enjoy your upcoming gigs. I wish I could be there someday.
I am back to drawing, since the lodckdown in 2020 I lost my creativity. But after the challence “a paper aday” during october it’s coming back.
Love, moeke
Christy's reply
Thanks Moeke…..lovely to read about Luka’s gig……my brother has made a full recovery from last years major heart surgery…..
its shocking to read of Belgian authorities turning water cannons on pro Palestine peaceful protesters….yet another sign of the rising fascist tide….
