Dicey Riley & OBB
Release CD: |
|
|
 |
|
|
|
Olde Burnside has
commissioned
Dicey Riley to produce a full length Celtic Rock CD that
Burnside will distribute as a promotional item throughout New
England. The CD will contain a mixture of traditional,
rollicking pub songs and maybe even a few Rebel songs thrown in.
The CD will be available for the first time at the 'Pipes
InThe Valley' festival for a minimum donation of $5, while
supplies last!
Dicey Riley is fast
gaining a reputation as one of New England’s best Celtic
Rock bands. Their particular style is similar to the bands “Flogging
Molly” or “The Pogues”. |

Our Summer Ale Now
Available |
|
Make your picnic perfect with our
"St.
Andrew's Summer Ale".
Now available for a limited time only.
This year's summer thirst quencher is a modified Koelsch style -
light,
refreshing with just a hint of hops.
Look for the handsome cobalt-blue fliptop bottle at
M&R Liquor
stores.
And as always, look for
'Ten Penny Ale'
and
'Dirty Penny
Ale'
in the
'growler' size.
Cheers! |
