Musical Pub Crawl

The Dublin Musical Pub Crawl is a great experience that anyone who loves real music should appreciate. You meet at Gogarty's Pub (a very touristy place) and buy your 12 euros ticket. You can have a pint while you wait and listen to the good but touristy Irish music. The group then follows a pair of musicians to a more authentic Irish pub and sits in a reserved room, gets their pints, and listens to music and stories of Irish culture. The musicians are very funny and informative, and talented with their instruments. They make it very clear that you will NOT be hearing "Danny Boy" or "Molly Malone" on this crawl. After some time at the pub, we all walked to another pub and were further entertained. The evening gives you a real appreciation for authetic Irish music. You can't help but stomp your feet to the music (don't clap!). Afterwards you are encouraged to visit one the few authentic music sets hapenning in pubs in central Dublin. Not only is this evening a great way to see local musicians at their craft, but it's a nice way to meet people and enjoy your Guiness (which is only good in Ireland apparently).
