After The Parks - Raglan Road (DS)

With so many entertainment venues available, it is difficult to choose a favorite. That being said when it comes to night time entertainment I find it difficult to find anywhere on property with better music and atmosphere.

Inside, the classic feel of the Irish pub is obvious as you walk through the front door. Two extravagant wooden bars border a hardwood dance floor and a humble stage that is often a mess with instruments and equipment. That humbleness is never long lived. The stage is on most nights ablaze with music and culture. Authentic Irish dancers, singers and musicians cycle through and offer unique takes on Irish music. While I do miss the old days when you could find Brazen Heads jamming on the patio on any given night, I have come to enjoy a more diverse sampling of music over the last few years.

Maybe it's the open sky or the acoustics, I tend to gravitate to the Patio. The bands tend to be smaller and the crowd a bit more interesting. It's rare to sit an evening and not catch noteworthy entertainment. Even the Ferrari Man makes an appearance on occasion. More on him in a later post.
