Things that make us smile.

This last week marked The Exchange Tavern's 6th St. Paddy's Day celebration!  It was a glorious party!  Our cheeks bunch remembering...

Jon Weiss entertained us all afternoon with his amazing playlist--and he added several Irish standards for the occasion too!  Then the Michael Collins Pipes & Drums band marched tradition into the pub with Irish pomp and style!  EVERYONE loves the pipes!  Wonderful!  And finally Stone Walls headlined our event entertaining us with upbeat versions of traditional Irish pub songs (Finnegan's Wake, Whiskey in the Jar), in between covers from the best in Irish rock including Dropkick Murphys, and Flogging Molly.  Couldn't have been better!

And then there was you.  Dressed in green.  Big smile on your face.  Celebrating all things Irish, in a happily packed pub.  Meeting new friends, cheering your neighbors, supping on traditional fare, and raising a pint... or two... or three ;o)

These are the things that make us smile!

And the countdown begins anew... just 361 days to St. Paddy's Day 2012!
