St. Paddy’s Day found me once again at my favorite watering hole, Hallenbrick Brewery in the Q. When you hail from Beantown you are forever doomed to walk the earth looking for a time to be had as full of joy as the revelers that swell up and down Beacon Street on March 17th. This teaser is a thanks to Dustin Orbesen (Squash Blossom Boys) for tearing it up on the fiddle and providing a backdrop appropriate to the authentic Irish cuisine that stewed in a crockpot behind me and filled my senses with the smell of comfort food from years past. I look forward to the upcoming review of the "Boys" who are known for a catchy combination of bluegrass, folk, and cajun, which will no doubt provide an impressive contribution to the headlining band,The Infamous String Dusters at El Rey Theater this Wednesday, March 24, 2010. My fellow reviewers, Phil and Tracy Kjelland, will be on hand to cover the event. If you have a show planned in the Albuquerque area, look for the couple taking notes and let us know about your next event!
