Their influences include Steppenwolf, Flogging Molly, and the Young Dubliners.

A consummate stage performer Mike has been happy to spend his time on stage with such great performers as Peter Yeates, Steve Mulligan, Joe Burk, Noel Hill, Paddy O’Brien, and Larry Nugent not to mention his original partner in the The Irish Brigade Gerry Goodwin god rest his soul or current partners Sean Conway and Darren Crossey.

 Born in Belfast Co. Antrim Ireland. Barry has been playing music since his early teens performing in Ireland, England, Denmark, and Sweden currently based in Virginia U.S.A. He has crisscrossed the U.S.A. many times from Cape Cod to Florida, Maryland to Minnesota. He has played with Coribb Folk, Pennywhistle, and as a solo artist for the former Irish Prime Minster Albert Reynolds and President Ronald Regan. He is never short of a toast, song or story so come listen sing and party with Barry Nelson. This is a “don’t miss” show so come in and catch Barry and a special guest at work, call it that work or not it’s a lot of fun to watch listen and sing a long. Barry often plays in the Twin Cities with Brendan Sheridan (accordian, tin whistle, 5-string banjo guitar, vocals): Brendan has a great command of all the instruments he plays as well as having a wonderful old style voice that brings out the best in his large repertoire of songs. Brendan has a fun collection of songs and tunes from the classic Pericy French songs from his own part of Ireland to a bunch of very nice “old time” American classics too. Otherwise Barry plays with a large variety of local musicians when he comes to town either way this is a “don’t miss” show so come in and catch Barry and his friends at work,… if we dare call it that. Work or not it’s a lot of fun to watch listen and sing a long.

Fall Scotch & Cigar Dinner

September 24th
 

We are having a five course Scotch dinner on Thursday Sept 24th featuring Macallan and Highland Park scotches. Registration is at 6pm, butler passed hors devours at 6:30 and seating at 7pm.

Five Course Macallan and Highland Park Dinner
Featuring Remy Cointreau Representative
Tom Kingsley
September 24, 2009
Historic Water Street Inn
 
6 P.M.  SOCIAL HOUR:
BUTLER PASSED HORS D’OEUVRES
~ Served with Macallan 12 year ~
Macallan 12 Yr Old has hints of sweet cream and vanilla due to aging in used sherry casks from Spain. The Macallan is one of the oldest Scotch names dating back over 300 years in the Speyside region.
 
7 P.M.  START WITH:
Tea-Smoked Duck Breast
on Crostini with Blueberry Jus.
~ Served with Macallan Cask Strength ~
This one is cask strength, which means it was not diluted with water before being bottled, as most whiskies are. Thus, while most Scotches are 40-46% alc/vol, this big guy weighs in at a hefty
58.6% (116 proof)
 
Soup
Curried Carrot with Roasted Red Peppers
~ Served with Highland Park 12 year~
The most northerly Scotch whisky distillery in the world, Orkney is a land full of mystery with the wind, rain, crushing waves and hail providing the perfect setting for the home of one of the world best single malt whiskies. Highland Park 12 was first introduced to Charlie’s Irish Pub in April 2007 after A.J. came back from a week long trip to Scotland raving about this fine single malt. Chuck agreed to add it to our Scotch selection and it has been one of our best selling single malts ever since.
 
Blackened Ribeye Medallions
with sautéed Bacon & Brussel Sprouts and Brandy Sweet Potato Gratin
~ Served with Highland Park 18 year ~
Highland Park 18 Year Old is an exceptionally fine whisky that builds on the world-class reputation already enjoyed by the 12 Year Old. All the Orcadian hallmarks of Highland Park are here – the smokiness, the peat, the heather-honey – plus it has gained a glorious richness and spiciness through its longer cask maturation.
 
Chocolate Hazelnut Torte with Butterscotch Ice Cream
~ Served with Naked Grouse~
Naked Grouse deviates most significantly from Famous Grouse because of the type of barrels used. Sixty-Seventy percent of the flavor in Scotch is from the wood. Famous Grouse uses American oak bourbon casks, while Naked Grouse uses European oak sherry casks from Spain.
 
$69.95 per person includes dinner, scotches and two hand rolled cigars.  Space is limited, reservations required

Paul and Lorraine:  Lorraine Garland  (violin and vocals) and Minnesota geneticist Paul Score (guitar and vocals.) They take on a fine variety of musical styles and territory, along with such subjects as love and death, (often in the same song) and happiness and despair (also often in the same song), with cool melodies and strange lyrics from such diverse songwriters as Neil Gaiman, Jane Yolen, Stephen Merritt, Todd Menton and Emma Bull, with some severely damaged traditional tunes and original songs penned by the band. Fabulous Lorraine rose to fame with her duo the Flash Girls in the mid 90’s, (“the find of the year and perhaps beyond” – Utne Reader).

September 24th

for
Arthur Guinness Day 
 
Come and celebrate 250 years of brewing tradition with Charlie’s Irish Pub and Jameson Bar. On September 24th we will be lifting a pint to Sir Arthur Guinness, entrepenuer and inventor, to commemorate 250 years since Sir Arthur signed the famous 9,000 year lease of the St. James’ Gate Brewery in Dublin, Ireland. We’ll be gathering around 5:30pm with a grand toast at 5:59pm. See you there!
