For many years I deejayed the St. Patrick's parade party at George's Cedar Inn in Lake Villa, Illinois. I played lots of Irish music and made a lot of cassette tapes to cover it. Generally, it was straight Irish music during the parade and the first hour or so after it. Then, I would play oldies and Irish music.
This morning, I am playing one of those tapes.
This is Side One of my St. Paddy's Party #2 cassette tape:

Some Good Irish Music Here, Even If I Do Say So. --RoadDog
RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.
