    I'm not sure but I swore I saw a piano player at Dunraven Arms Hotel in Adare last May, it's worth a try

    I know it might sound a bit stupid but could you offer to play piano for weddings?

    Right, ill go into town one of these days and try those spots, thanks a million:D

    Yup I could do weddings too....i've done a wedding before, and countless funerals, as I used to be the organist fo the choir in my local church before I moved down here, theres actually quite a bit of politics involved with playing the organ at weddings etc, i've heard stories of some people being quite peeved indeed at the notion of an 'outsider' playing 'their' organ....
    but yeah, worth a shot, ill definitely look into it!

    Thanks again for all the replies, It's a great help!!!
