It has been a fun and sad week at the same time. Last weekend saw America celebrating the July 4th holiday. We all went to see some great fireworks on Friday night in the park at Sugar Hill. Then on Saturday we had a pretty typical 4th of July at our house with some good friends, a kiddy pool, a bbq and a few fun fireworks. I even streamed live video of our fun from Ustream. Then on Tuesday last we all paused to watch some of the Michael Jackson Memorial. What a brilliantly produced show and what a sad day for the music world. Love him or hate him, you cannot argue with his talent or his impact on the music world.  On Episode 42 of Across The Pond there is music from the brilliant Duhks, Cuban music from Eliades Ochoa, Irish music from Bela Fleck and so many more. It is a real mixture of styles and genres this week. Don't forget that I love to hear your comments, either through here or on FaceBook or Twitter . So stay in touch and lets make the show more of a community event that you get to have some real part of.

 It's FINALLY time for the Cherokee Farms Fiddlers Convention on July 10-11! Folks are getting very excited about this one and for good reason. Eye Dawg has updated the schedule to include the workshops as well. Included are a kids workshop, a mando/fiddle mania session, banjo exploration, and some flat-pick magic! We will be alternating stages (w/ exception of the 11A slot on Sat AM) so that you'll be able to catch all the music.

Another episode of Across The Pond airs today at 1pm GMT on my favourite little radio station in the world ICR FM . Broadcasting to the Inishowen Peninsula and parts of Northern ireland, ICR brings you news and commentary from my homeplace in Ireland. It is a great leap forward in technology when I can turn on my computer in the morning and hear local news from my home town thousands of miles away. It is even more special to be able to play music for all my old friends back home, to share some of the great music of America with my Irish friends and the great music of Ireland with my American friends. Some great music on this week's show includes new tracks from Jim Lauderdale from his CD "Could We Get Any Closer". I also have music from Beoga, Brian Kennedy and Ryan Adams. So something for everyone in the show today I think. Don't forget you can now listen to the shows right here on JigTime shortly after they air in Ireland and you can also subscribe to the podcast on i-Tunes and have it delivered right to your i-Pod. Also rememeber I am on both Facebook and Twitter if you want to join me there and Across The Pond even has it's own Facebook page now. Stay safe and well everyone and for my American friends have a very Happy July 4th on Saturday.
