Hello Shay,
My new husband and I spent a week in Doolin on our honeymoon, in October. We were at McGann's every night because of your music. Thank you so much for all the wonderful music and memories. The music in other parts of Ireland, could not compare to your music in Doolin.
I just mailed some pics for you - hope you enjoy. Thank you again...we can't wait to come back and visit McGann's. It was our favorite place. And hopefully our first born will be named Shamus, I told my husband it was a sign - haha.
Thank you again,
Shy Bundy |

Theresa,
we'll see when I will have time for a few days rest and muse, but wait four years like you Theresa are too long. Are all sidewalks in the winter folded and left the inhabitants of Doolin in the well-deserved vacation? Is there anybody in the winter?  |

Hello all together,
it was an unforgetable time with you. The time in Doolin and the evenings with you in the pub are now unfortunately gone. The songs of Geraldine MacGowan and Shay are songs that pass through the middle of the heart in the soul of the listener and set up there a little warm nest of memories. Thanks for that.
Greetings from Hamburg.

Went to Doolin on a stag weekend a bit apprehensive 'bout the possibility of fun. Thanks to all the guys at Mcganns for proving me wrong. Craic was mighty, people and music were great and the food was to die for. 27 lads and all still raving 'bout the food. Absolutely excellent! |

This is quite possibly one of the greatest pubs there is. A true genuine Irish experience set in the tranquil surroundings of mystical Doolin. Great food, great craic and great music. A tourist attraction in its own right. |

I was sitting at home and had a memory of me and my girl's time at McGann's in Doolin. I immediately hopped up and headed down to my local shop and purchased a bottle of Jameson to have a hot whiskey....like the one I had there. Cheers and we'll see you again. |

We were recently in your pub with a music tour conducted by Mick Maloney. We really enjoyed your pub and your hospitality. I've attached 3 pictures that we took there and promised to send to you.
We hope that you enjoy them.

We promised pictures when at the pub in Doolin. Oh well, it has only been a year and a half but here are some. We will never forget the lovely time we had with you both. We found these two nights to be the most memorable and genuine of our entire trip to Ireland. We found Ireland to be the most beautiful place we have been.

Hi Séan regarding your enquiry from August last, the singer/guitar player was James Reilly ex “Solas”. He has moved back to Dublin and is now playing with Gerry Phelan a good friend of ours from our days in the band “Oisin”. James and his wife Heather spent a few days with us. James is a very talented player, you can have a look @ myspace.com/jamesrileyguitar to see what he is up to. Thanks for taking the time & interest to write.
Regards Shay MacGowan
There are a few photos from that night on McGanns WebSite |

Hello Shay!
Thank you very much for the songs! If you can, and want to, you may send many more! We heard also some faster songs you were playing…mostly acoustic. Can you tell me if this style has a name?
We had a great time in Doolin. It’s was our 4th time in Ireland. First time was 6 years ago and we ended our trip in Doolin with a fantastic night in McGann´s pub. So, this year, we came back and spent our last two nights in Doolin, again fantastic!
We will come back for sure!
Best regards,
Hendrik & Vanessa

In the meanwhile, we are back in Belgium.
Thanks for the great evening!

To my friends at McGanns,
I'm sorry that the files are so large. I don't have a clue as to format my camera to take photos differently, but I hope that these might help your website. I am writing to you in response to Geraldine's email and look forward to seeing you all soon. Thank you all for giving me the most memorable nights of my life. Because of your hospitality and music, there is not another place on this planet that I look forward to, or will, visit again. See you all soon.
Respectfully, Marshall Lally

I was at the pub Wednesday and Thursday nights of last week and there was a special guest singer. What was the name of the guest? Was it a person from the group Solas?
Thanks for you help,
