It’s Whit Weekend and the forecast in Achill is for rain. Sounds a bit like St. Patrick’s Day. 😉
Now the gallery for the 2017 St. Patrick’s Day parade is now complete so it’s the perfect time to view all the photos.
Enjoy and have a great weekend!

Dooagh Pipe Band on St. Patrick’s Day 2017 in Dooagh
A lovely video from the archives. Back in 2010, here is something that I captured while the band was playing at Gielty’s.

Here is a video of Dooagh Pipe Band playing the first tune of St. Patrick’s Day 2017 at Molly’s in Keel West.
This video shot at Pollagh Church shows how desperate the conditions were on this St. Patrick’s Day. Much respect to the band for continuing to play in such conditions. The spectators appreciated the effort shown by all the bands on the day.

The process of organising the photos for the 2017 St. Patrick’s Day parade gallery is ongoing. In the meantime, some photos will be posted occasionally until the gallery is complete.

Good morning!
10 days to go until St. Patrick’s Day 2017. I realised yesterday that I had taken some photos from the Achill Sound Parade last year and it would be a good time to get everybody in the mood by publishing them. Let’s hope that conditions are somewhat as good as last year’s perfect conditions.
Click here for the gallery of the Achill Sound 2016 St. Patrick’s Parade.
If you visited the site in the last few weeks, the appearance hasn’t been as good as usual. From today, the site has a new theme in honour of the 70th anniversary of the founding of the band. Not to mention that the website has now been in existence for 20 years.
I think that the site is more attractive and easier to use.
As usual, any comments or suggestions are welcome by email to paul@dooagh.com
I am happy to announce that the gallery for 2016 is now complete from my collection. Enjoy the gallery with memories of a fantastic day for the parade.
Here is the link to the gallery.
