The Irregulars perform at the Espresso Shoppe following the 2013 St. Patrick’s Day Parade in downtown North Platte.

Thanks to KNOP TV News 2 for this video

We continue to accept parade entries. The parade will begin at 2nd and Dewey in the NebraskaLand National Bank parking lot. The Parade route is from 2nd street North on Dewey through Downtown to 6th street. There is no entry fee to march in the parade. We ask that you complete the entry form to help us organize the parade. We know how important it is to separate the horses from the motor cycles.

The Irregulars will perform at the Espresso Shoppe following the parade. We hope you will join us for some great Irish music and some great coffee. We have it on notable authority that the Espresso Shoppe is gearing up for an Irish celebration. This is going to be a not to be missed party!

If you have questions about the parade or want more information feel free to contact us at parade@flatrockirregulars.com. The 2nd Annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade is organized and promoted by the Flat Rock Irregulars, North Platte’s premier Irish band.

The local Alzheimer’s organization raised some where over $10,000. Congratulations to all involved.

We get a break now for a while until our next gig. We have some new songs we will work on as we prepare for gigs in October and November.

The Irregulars will be performing at the 2012 Walk to End Alzheimer’s on Sunday, September 30, 2012. We will perform beginning at 1:00 pm. The walk takes place at the Golden Spike Tower and Visitor’s Center.

We enjoyed performing at Linden Court on Friday, September 28, 2012. We enjoy the opportunity to perform at Linden Court. Thanks for your support and hospitality.

We are beginning to plan the 2nd annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade. Since St. Patrick’s Day falls on Sunday in 2013 we are planning to hold the parade on Saturday, March 16, 2013.  If you are interested in participating in the parade or helping organize the parade send us an email at parade@flatrockirregulars.com.

The Irregulars have a number of gigs schedule for September. It is going to be a busy month. Our next public performance will be at Rail Fest on Saturday, September 15, 2012 8:30 am. Come to Rail Fest for breakfast provided by NebraskaLand National Bank and music by the Irregulars. We enjoy being part of Rail Fest and we hope to see you there.

We enjoyed playing for the MPCC back to school picnic on Thursday, August 23rd. They had a great crowd at the Cody Park Pavilion. We noticed a number of people dancing. Picnickers took a break from their meal to sing along with the band on “Old Dun Cow”. We appreciate the audience participation. A good time was had by all including the band.

We played for MPCC as the result of one of the Gift Certificates we donated to the United Way auction. We are happy to support the United Way and appreciated the opportunity we had to share our music with the faculty and staff of MPCC.

We had a great time performing at the Whistle Stop Outdoor Market. We played many of our Irish favorites and a few Blue Grass tunes. Audience favorite seemed to be “The Old Dun Cow.” Thanks to all those who came out to the Garden Glove Garden Center for the Market.

We want to thank Morgan for sharing her pictures with us. To see all the pictures from our performance at the Market visit our Galary.
