Gaelic Storm, Awesomest Band On Earth Probably

Whoa.

I don't care what Dave Shaughnessy says about Gaelic Storm as a band and Patrick Murphy personally. These guys and girl are some big deal. Their just released CD "What's The Rumpus" has debuted at #1 on the iTunes World Music charts. And Irish American Media, whatever that is, says the new disc is "truly Gaelic Storm's best album ever, by far...This milestone album has it all, both musically and lyrically." Which really doesn't leave a lot more for a CD to do when you think about it.

I pre-ordered a copy which hasn't showed up yet, so I'll have to take their word for it I guess. You know what I'd do were I lucky enough to be you? I'd hold off on buying it until Irish Fest weekend, then you can get it autographed. But if you just can't wait...get it on iTunes or order it here.

Man, I hope they bring that zebra.

Maybe it's the dyslexia kicking in, Dan, but I am pretty certain you're referencing American Irish Media (www.americanirishmedia.com), of which my publication is proud to be a member.
We are also all HUGE GS fans.
All the best,

You may be right, Pete. The "Irish American Media" phrasing came from GS, but they'd probably been drinking.
