Many moons ago I worked in the Hazel Hotel when the studio was going and I had the pleasure of meeting Frankie. It was the year that the stars of the Irish Music scene made a record for charity it was a John Lennon song War is Over. I was hoping to organise a night out for the staff that work for me and what better way than to enjoy a really good night with the Conquerors. So if ye are coming down this part of the world will you let me know, it would be great to relive the great craic and of course superb music.

The liveliest crowd ever. The Toastmasters were brilliant. Danced all night, the floor was always full and when we were leaving to go home they were all singing in the reception of the Sligo park hotel. The Toastmasters rock. Thanks for having us.
