Laissez Les Bon Temps Roulet, Paddy!

It's Mardi Gras and while you're right, that's not an especially Irish holiday there is at least a Kansas City Irish Fest connection.

Tonight, get your beads on and head to KC's oldest and bestest Irish bar, Kelly's Westport Inn (owned and operated by Irish Fest co-founder Kyle Kelly and managed by his daughter, Irish Fest staff member Colleen Kelly). There to help you celebrate Fat Tuesday you'll find the Hoodoo Ramblers, a hard rocking trio anchored on the drums by none of than Irish Fest Technology Committee co-chair John "Rearview Johnny" Wenzel. John also happens to married to Irish Fest E.D. Keli O'Neill Wenzel.

So see, Mardi Gras is an Irish holiday! Who dat say it ain't? See you there, chér! Et toi! Show starts at 9:00.
