Drowsy Maggie/The Cup of Tea (Reels)
The Golden Keyboard/Cooley’s Reel/The Earl’s Chair (Reels)
Up Sligo/Trip to Sligo/Tar Road To Sligo (I know awful long trip but fun yes?)
St. Patrick’s Day/The Washer Woman (Maybe we could put together a string of popular favorites as a medley?)
Merrily Kiss the Quaker’s Wife/Gleanntan Slide (or The Girl in the Dress)/The Dingle Regatta

I picked mostly reels, or tunes we recently went over. I also picked sets that we plan on playing with some polish. Perhaps we could have a practice run to try some sets before the big night?

1. Paddy Fahy’s/Julia Delaney (reels, in C)
2. Kitty Gone a Milking/Kiss the Maid Behind the Barrel (reels) I just introduced these tunes at our last gathering. They’re a nice set; they sound pretty energetic even when slow.
3. The Polka Set (polkas) Question: will Allen be there? If we have a guitar on this it will help the volume, but we should go over it in advance.
4. Toomgraney Castle/The Honeysuckle (hornpipes) These are the ones we just learned from Dan.
5. Hag tunes: Old Hag You Have Killed Me/The Hag at the Churn (jigs) The latter tune was just handed out by Allen. The two make a good set.

Please suggest some sets I forgot.
