I'm excited to broaden my musical horizons.
Anyway, from December 28th for about 1 week I'll be driving from my homeplace of Dublin, Ireland to France (Cherbourg), across to Paris, up to Calais and into the UK. My journey will then take my all the way up to Scotland before taking the ferry home from there. If any of you have any suggestions of sessions, jams, gigs or even good music shops and markets happening in any places on or near to my route I would be delighted to hear them. I'm a pretty free agent in regards to my plans as I'm 'following my nose' and have not booked any return ships yet.
Thanks again,
Patrick Cummins

You would be welcome to sit in on one of our rehearsals if you happen to be in Northumberland during your travels. We play acoustic Americana (3 chords and the truth...sometimes 4) and if you like singing as well you'd find it fun.
Drop me a PM if you like and I can organise the rehearsal to fit your plans.
