| 5th August 2008 HeyHeyTommyJ | Hoorah - From: Up up in Drumbshambo! I love that there is a continuous party / music festival where ever you go. I hope that you are enjoying every minute of it! I think next time you should come with me and be my personal photographer on my journey because none of my pictures do any justice to the amazing things I've seen! |
| 29th July 2008 Shawna | Castle - From: Galway... Wow! What a place! That's actually not a castle. That is an abbey that was originally built by a wealthy man as a private residence. As I recall, he never even lived there. Now the nuns who live there make pottery to support their livelihood. |

My husband and I are going for a year backpacking through Europe, etc starting next June and we're starting in Ireland, will you still be there then? Talk soon! Keep having fun! |

| 4th March 2008 Saundra Elaine's aunty | gas! - From: Bodhrans on Inis Oírr (Inisheer) and Music in Milltown Hi Jess! Saundra Elaine's aunty here (and Conor's brother's ex-girlfriend's mother!) I was just looking for the date for this year's bodhran festival and your blog came up first, I was thrilled to see that I knew you! In case you don't remember, I met you one of the mad Willie festival nights at the Crosses of Annagh! Great photos! I met a character the other night who said I could have his wee house on Inis Oirr for the festival because he won't be there! Hope the date suits me. Looking forward to learning the darn thing instead of just looking at it! Have missed Elaine every time she's come to Dublin. See you on the Auld Sod someday again I'm sure, aloha and gra until then, Saundra |

| 12th December 2007 Laura Glasner | Thanks for documenting a phenomenal show! - From: Gráda comes back to Rochester! Jess, I'm a friend of your Mom's. I was at the concert and was totally blown away by Grada. When I went on line after the show, I looked them up on youtube, and the first video I saw was yours! Your Mom had just told me about your website, so I thought it was quite the coincidence. they are remarkable musicians, and it is just so exciting, thrilling even, to experience the creative way they approach the music, while being true to their traditional roots- we have a particular love of Irish music, as my sister is a wonderful fiddler, and our daughter is a step dancer. I look forward to future opportunities to hear Grada. thanks again- Laura |
