Kings Of The Irish Pub



The day has come upon us. Cheer and joy is spread across any land no matter if your in Ireland or Canada or South America or India or Australia. Today marks St. Paddy's day! The holiday is celebrated worldwide and its a day where no matter what religion or race you are, today you become irish. Green beers are poured into pint glasses where lads and ladies are colored in green clothing. Today is a happy day no matter where you go, there's just something about St. Paddy's day that brings smiles to peoples faces without getting gifts or money. Irish pubs across the world are getting set for great live music being played tonight and rivers of beer about to be poured. That is why for today, the last day of my all Irish week blog, I have chosen a song dedicated to the Irish pub. A new group have taken the world by storm. Conjured up by the same people that created Celtic Women, that have become such a huge phenomenon, The High Kings are doing the same. Consisting of a son of Bobby Clancy from the legendary Clancy Brothers, a son of Sean Dunphy who represented Ireland in the Eurovision song contest in 1967, the son of Finbar Furey of The Furey's and Broadway/pop star Darren Holden who played Billy Joel in the broadway musical Movin Out. This group is crammed full of talent. The harmony is impeccable and their stage performance is fun filled with getting the spectators involved in the show and being part of the experience. In this video The High Kings sing of Irish pubs and how you can find one anywhere in the world, no matter where you go. Its true to form. This is a dedication to the pub that I work at Walkhams Gate Pub, to the traditional irish groups that are playing there tonight Just BS and the green beer and irish cheer that will be served to everyone tonight on the day where everyone becomes Irish, St Paddy's Day. Cheers!!
