Between the Guinness girls and the Tilted Kilt girls, the company was quite enchanting (to the extent it required Herculean effort to focus on my tune).
I've got two other gigs with Guinness this month; a "Perfect Pint" bartender competition at the Hard Rock Casino (GO DALE! YEAH!), and Four Green Fields in Tampa (always a fun place to pipe; there's always a few lads who know all the words to my Irish tunes, and aren't a bit shy about adding vocal accompaniment). Also an Earth Day festival at Honeymoon Island State Park, three more weddings, a golf tournament, a whisky tasting, and a funeral Wednesday. I'm liking April!
The sad thing is; I just made more money in an afternoon than my "real" job has paid me in the past three months...
Downix, I live near Belcher and Coachman; perhaps a mile from you.
I work right up the street from the hard rock, let me know the day and you'll get a room full of guiness lovers....
I'm in the opposite direction, so yes, about a mile.
