In memory of Tom O'Neill!

In a year of sad passings, with a heavy heart we must add another well known & loved figure to the list. Tom O'Neill, owner of one of the best known session pubs in Ireland, will now be pulling pints for the likes of Tommy Peoples, Liam O'Flynn & Alec Finn at that great session above. On Friday the 23rd of November 2018 our good friend Tom O'Neill was laid to rest by the beautiful St. Patrick's Church, in Culfeightrin, in the Glens of Antrim.

At 7:20 on June 7, 2012, Werner Gerloff said…: Sorry, I was confused. You certainly meant the Irish concertina website, not the group. Yes, I had a look at it, but not a very close one I must admit. Will come back later.

No, actually I didn't know. I don't believe Isaac is
a very common name in many music circles. I was once
told it was a good jazz name once loll. I think I remember
hearing of a piper with the name, could be mistaken
though.
