    Wow, that was not an answer I was expecting! Certainly an option! Do you know which other bars are good for live music?

    Thanks again!

    I have no idea otherwise. The only time I ever go to Castlebar is to the TF for a concert. Tickets for the gig are just €30! There is an after party as well. A good crowd stays around the hotel after the gig.
    When I saw Status Quo playing there, they had a savage guitar player playing bluesy folk before the gig in the bar.

    Well thanks for the info. I'll get the lay of the land while I'm down there and who knows, I might end up in the crowd with you at Dr. Hook!

    Thanks again!
