| I swear "I had nothing to do with the location". It seems that
there is a very large Irish population in and about the area. And
there enough of us willing to drive there instead of Boston or
Somerville. 8*)
I'll be there if all goes right.
Are you going to make it Jen?
Are the Studies done now?

| This American humour is very reminiscent of the Dutch humour.........
(very strange). Did these buses have any particular/relevant colours
perhaps?
Methinks more than just Paddy should have been on that small bus.
Yours used to walking five miles per day....barefooted....in all
weathers.....without a word of complaint,

Paddy Culbert.
A singer of songs and ballads, defender of orphans, soldier of fortune,
casual lover, world traveller, all-round good guy, parachutist
extraordinaire, part-time scholar, sportsman specializing in the
tasting of sundry alcoholic beverages, the difficult done immediately -
the impossible takes a little longer, miracles by appointment, wars
fought, revolutions srarted, governments run, bars emptied, tigers
tamed, orgies organised, chastity belts unlocked.
P.S. Description stolen from a modest Kerryman, but just as/more apt
in describing our good f(r)iend & representitive from N.H. Perhaps
there be Kerry blood in the veins......somewhere?????

Just to let you all know that Matt Molloy,flute player with
the Chieftains, has just purchased a pub in my hometown of
Westport,Co Mayo. Matt,whom I believe hails from Ballaghdereen(sp)
in Co Roscommon, plans to open the pub in a couple of months or
so. Rumour has it that the band will be there but I know for sure
that the whole bloody town(myself included) will be there!!! :-)

RE: .1-.14
I find this very amusing. I put in a rather innocent note about
a concert, go off on holiday, and come back to find the conversation
has degenerated into a discussion of buses!
I was indeed thinking about going to the concert, but it would be
a long ride home with lots of red lights. Does anybody know of
any nice hotels in the area?
RE. .1
Yes I've finished school for the semester. COBOL was interesting----no
one person should be allowed to have so much fun! Unfortunately,
classes start again in about two weeks---no rest for the weary!

| 482.16 | Buses 3 Chieftains 0 | FSLPRD::KSULLIVAN | | Fri Jan 06 1989 07:39 | 6 |
| Buses, no matter what size, colour or usage, are more intresting
as a conversational topic than these Chieftain types!!!!!
Yours who had hoped they'd have stayed in China for a little longer,
Murphy.

| Does anyone know what a "floor slide" is?
Ry Cooder plays one on the new Chieftains "The Long Black Veil"
album and I'd like to understand something about the instrument.
PLEASE respond by mail if possible. I'm not a regular reader
of this conference. You can reply by saying FORWARD/AUTHOR

| A floor side sounds like a floor frame mounted slide guitar:
____
| |____| <--- guitar
| | |
+--- | | <--- frame
| | | |
^ Chair
The player sits at the guitar and plays it in the sams way as a lap steel guitar.
Sometimes they can have pedals to udjust the actiobn to produce different tones
etc.
