I'm delighted you had a good time!

I need to learn "Paddy's Lamentation."

Indeed!

I used to sing it, myself--I reckon I could pull it out again, given a couple of minutes to think about the words. I'm not sure who I learnt it off, although I'm almost wondering if it might have been a cassette recorded by some band in the early nineties. I can't seem to find a version on my computer, unfortunately--search gets me Paddy Glackin and Paddy Cronin and Paddy Fahey and lots of different versions of "Rakish Paddy" and "Sporting Paddy". If I can find in on a CD, I'll rip it and send you the track.

I really wish Dick Gaughan had recorded it--it'd suit him well, or perhaps I should say he'd suit it well.

Enjoy the 'Thon! I hope it's everything you'd wish it to be.
