This posting of the O'Connor's session has prompted me to write this brief comment...
I was in Dublin for two weeks last year - and happened to coincide with the bank holiday weekend and Seamus Ennis Festival. I was at O'Connor's the entire weekend, played a bit of flute, and met some sound locals - flute player named Dennis and many friends of his (too many to remember names, no offence if any of you are reading this), banjo (I think?) player named Ray.
Entire experience was fantastic and inspirational. Every one of the folks that I met there was friendly and courteous.
very friendly session live set dancing singing also small venue

Also, the barman at O'Connor's is most excellent!
