Lunasa, Vineyard Concert, 08-03-12

Lunasa is one of Ireland's top bands, and how lucky we were to have them performing here on the island at the lovely Union Chapel in Oak Bluffs on Friday night.

An Oak Bluffs night on the town afforded islanders an opportunity to gather on the lawn, pre-concert, to dine on Giordano's take-out - pizza, or fried clams were the favorites - as well as a chance to mingle with friends; the KCT concert series, as usual, having drawn a large proportion of locals; a sanctuary of familiar faces - a rarity, mid-summer on the island.

The hot and steamy Vineyard August day gave way to a hot and sultry Vineyard August night, and the combination of Lunasa's stellar performance (including, of course, Kevin Crawford's on-going, witty, and highly entertaining dialogue), the unique qualities of Union Chapel's sanctuary, and an occasional breeze blowing through the open doors created an evening of sheer magic and a performance not soon forgotten.

Thanks, as always, to Gregg Harcourt and Mary Wolverton of KCT Concerts for providing us with top-notch music, and performances that rival some of the larger mainland venues.
