20 great things to do in Dublin - Time Out Dublin By Time Out editors and Sulakshana Gupta 1. Experience Dublin as the locals do Despite its unsavoury reputation in past years, Temple Bar is one of the city's most charming neighbourhoods and residents are trying hard to keep it that way. Cobblestone streets, bars, cafés, art galleries and architectural splendour harmoniously blend with old streetscapes and eco-friendly schemes. 2. If all you came to Dublin for is the Guinness, then camp out at Kehoe's. See all bars and pubs 3. This isn't how you'd imagine a castle in the traditional sense. See all major venues 4. The wooden décor may be excessively rustic, but Dublin's oldest microbrewery pub, the Porterhouse, makes up for that with the quality of its beer. See all restaurants 5. St Patrick's Day on 17 March (www.stpatricksfestival.ie) offers the perfect excuse to drink, if you need one. 6. 7. Fridays are fun times at Peploe's. 8. See all attractions 9. See all sports, health and fitness venues 10. See all fish and seafood restaurants 11.

: The Chieftains - Celebrating 40 years of music : So Just What Exactly Is A Cittern, Anyway? by Robin Bullock (Column originally written for Acoustic Musician Magazine - used by permission) If you've spent any time at all around Celtic music, you'll have noticed the frequency with which citterns, bouzoukis, octave mandolins, mandolas, mandocellos and even blarges show up. Fast forward to the 1960s, when a young Irishman named Johnny Moynihan discovered the Greek bouzouki. However, by this time, these guys and the players who followed in their footsteps were playing newly-made instruments that had flat or arched backs, more like big mandolins than genuine bouzoukis. Thus began the confusion: with two terms floating about, people understandably assumed that there was a difference between the two, especially since by now there were both eight- and ten-string variations on the theme, as well as short necks and long necks. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Like to hear some cittern/bouzouki/octave mandolins (or CBOMs, as they're sometimes called on the Internet)?
