Brennan's Place, Holyoke, MA 3/18/11

For the second year in a row we traveled to Holyoke, MA to take part in their annual St. Patrick’s Day weekend festivities, and once again we were rewarded with beautiful weather, warm hospitality and a fun show. The set list included three debuts in “Ain’t Good Enough For You,” “American Land” and “From Small Things.” The show also featured the debut of the Shuffle Mardi Gras beads, which were a big hit. Due to time constraints we eliminated one of our planned breaks, and plowed through with two long sets instead, which included two encores. Other highlights of the road trip included stops at three legendary Connecticut joints: Rawley’s, Super Duper Weenie and Danny’s Drive-In. All three were outstanding. Many thanks to Patrick and the staff at Brennan’s for taking care of us and making us feel at home. We’re looking forward to a return trip next year!
