Omagh: personal memories (update)

Acoustic Grass at Omagh: left to right - Barney Bowes (mandolin), Dessie Crerand (fiddle), Sean McKerr (bass), two audience members, Tony Curran (banjo), Colin Henry (dobro), Frankie Robinson (guitar)

Colin Henry reports: I attach a photo for the blog of the lads at Omagh. Barney in full song as other dubious looking characters back him up! Could I also take the opportunity on the blog to thank Tony Curran and Frankie Robinson for inviting me to play with them. I had a great time, and for a band that hadn't played together ever before (and even for some that had) the music sounded pretty good to me.
