Mel Schacker's tone is killer, too.  I always liked what he did...

Sam, that's a good question! I was walking with my girlfriend in a torrential downpour and just sort of ran into it! It's actually in the middle of a small street around Temple Bar, but I'd be pushed to find it again. Its kind of low key...not sure when it was erected.

Dave, Michael, thanks for the info. I'll be sure to look for it on my next pilgrimage to Eire.

Sam:
 
Give us some warning on your trip, and we'll see if we can meet up for a pint of Guinness. . . or two. . . or three. . . or four!  I really don't need much of an excuse!

Mike
Go ahead and start without me.  At the moment my budget doesn't have trans-Atlantic journeys in it.

Are any of the bass players here fans of Bobby Vega? Just curious. I've heard absolutely inspired playing by Bobby.
