The Onlies and their peeps had a fabulous time celebrating that enemy of snakes, St. Patrick. Here’s a little idea of how the evening went…

Riley and his pa

THIS JUST IN: Riley and his dad, Johnny, are playing a half-hour’s worth of old-timey tunes tomorrow at Seattle’s very best ice cream, pinball, and beer hangout, Full Tilt in Columbia City. The tunes start at 6:30 p.m. At 7 p.m., Riley and Johnny will be leading an old-time jam until it’s Riley’s bedtime.

Full Tilt (which actually serves beer floats for those over 21) is at 5041 Rainier Ave S. (map), and is super family friendly, and they’ve got old-time pinball machines, Ms. Pac Man, and even some newer stuff. Come!

Dia Dhuit Lads and Lasses!                                                                                                               

Make your way down to the Lakewood Community Center (4916 S. Angeline St., Seattle) on yes, Saint Patties Day (Thursday, March 17th). While we’re performing at 7:00 PM, you can come get lucky with tables of Ireland’s finest food, including corned beef, cabbage, potatoes, and dessert. Tix are $15 per person for food, or $10 for food and non-alcoholic drinks (kids under 6 are free). For more info, visit the Community Center’s Web site. We will be playing our traditional Irish repertoire, so if your a sucker for some good Irish tunes, we’ll see you there!

-The Onlies   P.S. Don’t forget to wear green or else you’ll be pinched! 🙂

Olympia

We are playing a dance at the Loft in Olympia on Feb. 6. It’s a benefit for the Olympia Old-Time Music Festival, and we share the stage with the Grizzle Grazzle Tune Snugglers. Here are the details.
