Excellent. A Fleadh for Django, Gypsy Jazz meets the Gaeltaichd - forgive my poor Gaelic. I'd certainly come and I'm sure there'd be a strong Scottish contingent given the "bargain" flights from Ryanair and Squeezyjet.

I wonder if we could work it so that any big names appearing could come via Glasgow and do some gigs and workshops - that inlcudes you Dennis.

Years ago there was a guitarist from Shetland called Peerie WillieJohnston who crossed jazz and Scottish tunes. Here's some links

Anyway, all the best and if there's anything we can do to help let us know

Thanks for the feedback guys-if all goes according to plan its going to be all puppydogs and icecream for all Django maniacs like me. If anyone has any friends in multi nationals that have a LOAD of money to spend on advertising let me know!

We are looking at around the end of August by the way chaps. Gives us more time to organise and hopefully get some decent weather. 8)

Any further developments on Django Fleadh? Have to say a mouth watering prospect.
For anyone interested The Hot Club of Dublin have a run of a few gigs in the Glenview Hotel in December. Haven't seen them in a while, looking forward to it. More info here

Hey buddy, the gig is looking shaky as job loss and sponsership is hitting it big time-I am playing with Finton every Thursday in Sinners restaurant in the time being-he sounds amazing! If I can get any good news it will be on here as soon as I get it

If you are in Dublin come along tonight!
