McCusker, McGoldrick, Doyle - 22 March 2024

Our first gig at the rebuilt Lantern was this trio we had last seen in the foyer of the Beacon building just before lockdown. As last time this was a beautiful gig, starting with an air featuring Mike on bagpipes. Each of the three led in turn throughout the gig, John Doyle with Irish folky songs, Mike McGoldrick with tunes from all over Galicia, Brittany, Shetland usually with him on whistles, John McCusker with fiddle led tunes including his 'Friday Island' tune he played last time. John Doyle has a great singing voice as well as super fast rhythm guitar playing and all in all it is just a great pleasure that deserves a bigger audience than the 300 or so in the Lantern.
