House concert
A much better part of Sunday was the house concert that we went to. A guy who we know who lives in Cupertino (where Apple Computer lives too) arranges these concerts in his house. I have never figured out how he gets these artists to do this, but he always gets such great people to play there, he also lays on tons of great food too. All in all it is a pretty enjoyable experience.
He often has celtic artists, or celtic influenced artists. The pic above is of the artist who played on Sunday. Kevin Burke is a top Irish fiddle player. His playing was lovely. I could just imagine the peat bogs and little cottages of Ireland as he played. His line in "in between song chat" was also very enjoyable.
