Paddy Coynes

Last night we had our first "social" gathering of the band.  Mike Solan put out the email and we descended on Paddy Coynes in South Lake Union.
I would estimate about 30-40 bandmembers and assorted spouses/significant others were there.  It was nice to get a chance to meet the pipers from the Monday rehearsal, as well as some of the drummers.  I sense a friendly rivalry brewing there...
Plus a few lads from the Seattle Fire Dept. Pipe Band stopped in to support us.

I talked with Carla quite a bit about where we are for fundraising, and got a chance to meet with Mike about the Uniform committee.  While there was the inevitable talk about business, a Guinness or two loosened the group up.

All in all it was good craic!
