The musicians were great... the uilleann piper, Tom Creegan, was amazing. The dancers were definitely a local group... forgettable and distracting. Would have been 5 stars with more professional dancers. Kevin and Cal were wonderful and so entertaining.
This was a great show with lots of great musicians and dancers. Kevin Burke is the master! And Cal Scott and Tim O'Brien were the perfect compliment.
It's wonderful to have so much talent locally, and hearing Tim O'Brien was a fantastic treat! Wow!
Chamber music was a nice twist to the usual Irish music. There could have been more singing and dancing. Story telling was great.
Kevin Burke and Cal Scott played a subdued, but authentic St. Patrick's Day concert at the Aladdin, thanks to Marv Ross. This is scheduled to be an annual event to benefit the mentoring of children at risk, Friends of the Children. It felt very open and bare bones, but I am sure as years go on, the show will grow bigger and better. But, make no mistake, there is no better fiddler to hear on St. Patrick's day than Kevin Burke. And you can skip all the drunks drowning out the music at Kell's. This is a treat to be enjoyed every year.
Kevin and Cal are always fantastic. They are musical wizards. The addition of the very skilled Irish dancers was a nice touch. This concert wasn't as good as the Celtic Fiddle Festival, but we'll take it. Any time Kevin Burke is in town we attend!
We enjoyed the show. The only thing that we all thought would have improved it would be some Celtic/Irish vocalists. I was expecting at least Danny Boy or Galway Bay. Having so many jigs at the beginning was enjoyable, but not Wow!
Amazing show. These guys certainly don't disappoint, and they balanced out their own unforgettable live show with guest spots from top-notch guests. The Aladdin is one of our favorite venues for sit-down shows. Great staff, great place.
