Galway Bay Irish Night nets more than $6,000 for the Museum!
The First Annual Irish Night at Galway Bay restaurant on March 8 was a terrific success. Nearly two hundred AMM supporters paid $50 each for a St. Patrick’s Day “preview” featuring an all-you-can-eat Irish buffet and music by the “Irish O’Boys,” cousins from the Emerald Isle of the Museum’s “house band,” Them Eastport Oyster Boys.
“We are indebted to Galway Bay for their generosity in offering this opportunity,” Marsha added. “The evening was ‘made,’ however, by the ‘Irish O'Boys,’ whose upbeat music and fun makes everyone feel happy.”
Kevin O’Brooks and Jeff “Sean” McHollihand led the eclectic band of balladeers including Tom Guay on fiddle, Keith Manuel on bodhran, Pete Miller on bass, Randy Neilson on accordion, and Andy Fegley on the slide shillelagh.
Baltimore Mayor Martin O’Malley stopped by to sing a couple of rousing sea chanties, as did Irish music superstar Shamus Kennedy.
