KC Irish Fest 2010 Reactions

I usually post reactions to Kansas City’s Labor Day Weekend Irish Fest in the form of excerpts and links, but for the 2010 festival the reactions posted online were way down, so I’ll just link to this Tony’s Kansas City article which covers most view points directly or links to those that do:

Kansas City Irish Fest Claims Record Numbers Amid Disappointing Reviews!!!

Be aware though that some of the anonymous comments on that and an earlier TKC KCIF post are of a personal and particularly unsavoury manner which, although not without irony, is not something I want any part of, so comments here are closed.
