I was the first one there at Kildare's in West Chester and suffered a bit through the really bad house band.

Declan was the second to arrive and we enjoyed a couple of pints together despite the band.

Then Rocky & Kelly showed up, with Rocky's bifurcated friend Jimmy in tow. We all headed out to the outside deck for a little while, and then the five of us went up and down Gay Street hitting two other pubs.

It was great meeting Declan finally, and I really look forward to getting together with him again soon. And I have to say, he really has a way with the ladies. 8)

In the end though I'm pretty sure I'm not doing anything in West Chester again. The parking is bad. The pubs are bad. The crowd is too young (I'd wager a nice sized chunk of the girls at Kildare's were exercising fraudulent ID's). The Kildare's in West Chester is nowhere near as nice as the King of Prussia location.

EDIT: I posted a couple of pics of the event in the Philly Kilt Nights album.
