    […] Terrace Stage (What you may know as the ice rink): 5:30 pm: Enter The Haggis 7:30 pm: Hothouse Flowers 9:30 pm: 7 Nations […]

    […] Oh, and there’ll be music. From many of the performers appearing at the Labor Day Irish Festival. From the field of Celtic rock they’ll be playing Enter the Haggis, Seven Nations, The Elders, Hothouse Flowers and Black 47 […]

    […] Your’re spoiled for choice of course. If you like the big stuff, then you have 7 Nations, Gaelic Storm, Enter The Haggis, and the Elders on the Terrace stage - all capable of headling any Irish Festival in North America. In fact if you are an elders fan then Kansas city is where you really want to see them, at this, their hometown festival. Last year there was an enormous crowd on the terrace. […]

    […]   • Jason from the pitch did not have a great time watching Seamus Kennedy at the gaf the night before the festival began.   • Happy in Bag struggled with the Hothouse Flowers Friday performance, and I know what he means but I’d blame the crowd.   • Happy was happy with the festival overall and shares some photographs and moments over at Hit Random.   • The Renick family from St Louis were treated wonderfully by the festival organizers, making last year’s almost horror story a distant memory   • Concert Chris at Patchcord had a great time on Friday night especially watching the Hothouse Flowers   • Flipster had a great time watching Gaelic Storm and Seven Nations   • Franny and friends had a great time watching Enter the Haggis (twice), Seven Nations, and going shopping   • Snarky sneak had a blast after a little online ticket hoo-ha, particularly enjoying Enter The Haggis See Also:     • Biggest Irish Festivals in America     • A preview of Day 3 at the KC Irish Fest     • Kansas City Irish Fest Entertaiment […]

    […] Festival favourites of Kansas City, The Young Dubliners have announced that they are playing the Weston Irish Festival in Missouri this October. It’s an impressive line-up which includes Seven Nations, and Kansas City’s The Elders […]

    Flannigan’s Right Hook puts one heck of a live show. They’re newer on the irish scene, but they play some irish mixed with bluegrass that is really fun to watch and listen to with a pint of guiness.

  7. [ Irish KC ] Kansas City Irish Festivals, Music, Pubs, & Events » Archive » Black 47 Tour of Ireland 2006 responds: October 26th, 2006 at 9:00 pm

    […] One of the highlights of the recent Irish Festival in Kansas City for me, was sitting with Seven Nations‘ Kirk McLeod as we watched Black 47. […]
