Hey everybody! We’re ten!
Ten years. More than five hundred performances. On damn near one hundred stages. In four countries.
On TV a half dozen times. Streamed one million times on Spotify.
Four countries. Four wakes. Fourteen festivals, with four more this year. All the pubs.
You guys have been there for us. We really appreciate it.
We’re starting to feel like a success. We won’t let it get to our heads.
In the spirit of ten wonderful years, we’ve compiled a thoroughly incomplete list of ten kinds of people you might find at a Clover’s Revenge show, and we’ve given it a David Letterman vibe.
So, without further ado, and from the home office in Grand Rapids, MI: the top, but in no particularly meaningful order, ten kinds of people who you might see if you show up at Clover’s Revenge pub shows.
10 – Big, bearded huggers. Mostly men.
9 – Fans who also show up for our breakfast performances at the Highland Games. That’s dedication.
8 – People with flasks of whiskey hidden about their personages. Naturally sneaky and inclined toward whiskey mischief.
7 – Step dancers, two steppers, high kickers and loving couples who sway. Simply joyful to behold.
6 – Lovely, lovely liquid tippers. Wink.
5 – People who volunteer at Celtic Heritage Festival beer tents. Wink wink.
4 – Friendly strangers in Pogues tee shirts. Soul sisters and brothers!
3 – People who jostle to get closer to the pipes and drums. Scottish lunatics and other kindred spirits.
2 – Badasses who rock mohawks and kilts at the same time. You know who you are.
1 – Proper ladies who bring their knitting to enjoy the craic. Proof we’ve made good musical choices.
