One member of the audience even danced a very well done hornpipe. The duo that played had a good selection of true Irish music and avoided the cliched dribble for the most part (one gaff but I suspect it was a request). Very lively entertainment later in the evening. However, for those who recommended the Dubliner - thank you.

There is absolutely nothing Irish about this place - certainly not the music, not the atmosphere and not the decor (or lack thereof). Its a dive bar for drunk college kids -not a place for a mature adult to have a drink and take in some music. stop looking through stereotyped fogged glasses. The Dubliner and the Irish Times.įor those of you who think that the Irish Times is an example of what an Irish bar is like you need to 1. I'm back from DC and visited two of the bars mentioned. Of course, the Protestant terrorist groups won't give up their weapons, but there continue to be double-standards in Northern Ireland politics. It is largely believed that this is what led to the IRA's historic move 9 days ago to start decommissioning. These groups often hold fundraisers or pass a jar around Irish pubs in America.īut since 9/11, money coming from the US has slowed to a trickle, as we Americans get a first-hand taste of terrorism. It's the other Republican and Protestant terrorist groups, as well.īut many Americans still see them as the freedom fights they used to be, and give them money through different front organizations, like NORAID. I am very sympathetic with what they have tried to achieve, as I am Catholic from Northern Ireland (I now live in America), but since the 80s, the IRA has basically become gangsters who make a great deal of money through drugs. Leone-Unfortunately, many Americans (who consider themselves so-called "Irish Americans") have a very romanticized view of the IRA. I used to love it, when I was in college. The place has been closed down by the health department more times than I can count. First off, the Irish Times is only fun if you're under 25 or looking to score with a college girl.
