If you live in County Mayo you probably have seen this poster around. I thought it was just an ad for a comedian or something but it turns out it’s for Liam Geddes from Ballina. He is in the final six of the Irish contestants for the Eurovision 2008 in Belgrade. Which I will attend as well, not as a singer but I will hopefully get tickets to see the show. Why? Well, my mom is from Serbia and I still have family in Belgrade and I always said … if Serbia ever wins the Eurosvision I will try to make it for the big event.

I was trying to find videos of Liam Geddes but had no luck. Or at least an MP3 of his song "Sometimes"! Any Idea?

Well, Good Luck Liam and in case you will be representing Ireland in Serbia, would you be up for an interview?

Long time no see. Are you wondering where I have been? Well I am wondering myself what happened in the last month :) Everything is well, I was just on holidays, I also got to finally spend some time in Dublin.

So get ready for the Ireland Blog going live again.

I took this video in the temple bar at temple bar .. this was the very first time I go to listen traditional irish music since I moved here. What a shame!

I am so excited that I found this video. On Thursday we went to Westport with our guests and I suggested to go to Matt Molloy’s for a Guinness or two. A random guy stopped and told us we definitely should go. They got the best Guinness and one of the Chieftains owns it. Then we had to go of course.

Well, you should go too and take a look at the Mirror behind the first bar – we spotted a Grammy Award just standing there. And by the way, we sat exactly were they are playing in the video.

Have you heard of Sugur Ros? It’s an Icelandic Band they sing in an made up language and whenever I travel though the breathtaking landscape of Ireland … I pop in their CD.

Their latest album Takk is available at Amazon

Givem a try … at first it sounds really odd but after a while it really grows on you. And if you have a chance to see their concert .. GO!
