If you're into Irish dancing, Murphy's Celtic Legacy: Irish Dance Reborn is touring the US and Canada this spring:
http://www.murphyscelticlegacy.com/tour-dates/Features dancers and musicians from Riverdance, Lord of the Dance and
Celtic Woman (I don't think any of the former lead performers from Celtic Woman are in the show, probably just the dancers and maybe someone from the band).

There's actually some very convenient locations in there for me.
But there's something familiar about that weekend in March though, what could it be?
Oh right, that's Mairead Nesbitt's "Celtic Sounds" show. Do I really want to drive 4-5 hours on Friday, get back late Friday night, then another 5-8 hours starting early Saturday morning?
Argh!!!! The timing of shows this spring has been pretty horrendous so far.
But fortunately for me, Brantford is close enough I can get there and back on a weeknight.
