    Hello,

    I'll be going over to New York on the third to play a bunch of gigs in Irish Pubs.
    Its mostly Dubliners, Clanceys etc.
    I play guitar and have a banjo player with me but just thought I'd ask....

    If there any fiddle players in New York thought would like to meet up and sit in with us for some tunes please get in contact.

    We are both 25, first time in NY. Unfortunitly we coulnt offer any pay this would be for fun.
    If your interested please give us a shout.
    Cheers,
    Neil

    Ps sorry for the short notice

    Hey, i was over there during the summer and spent most of my time trawling through Irish bars. The only place i was that had a great fiddle player was a pub called the Pig and Whistle just off Times Square. as far as I know the duo who played there played every 2 weeks or so in that pub, while also going around other pubs in the city. your best chance is probably to just go around the pubs and ask about in those places. you're bound to find someone :) good luck with it though, you'll make a killing with the audiences in the bars!
