The BEO gang on the night!

Oiche Aoine seen two coach loads of Letterkenny teens head off to west Donegal to a BEO gig hoasted by Colaiste na Carraige.

One hour and 30 mins later, Grainne from the BEO Committe comments we can’t still be in Donegal!

The crew were on their way to see Daothí O Dronaí the Galway based Clare man who had a song featuring his grandmother “The Mary Keane Introduction” go viral just before Christmas.

It looked like the entire town of Carrick was waiting for the Letterkenny teens as there seemed to be hundreds waiting outside the west Donegal School. Two coaches rolling into town on Friday night seemed to generate quite a bit of excitment.

Táfailte roimh uilig go Colaiste na Carraige was the welcome from the CNC BEO committee led by Lanty and Joan.

The music started with locals the Skinns who entertained admirably in spite of drummer Denis Byrne being away at college.

Next up and new to performaing game are Reabhloideach from the Abbey Vocational school. These girls look like they are at home on the stage and we are all waiting to see if they will be able to back up their first original song writen for Comórtas BEO back in October. The girls will be preforming for the forthcomming BEO event in Letterkenny on February 5th.

Headliner Daithí didn’t disappoint and had the 250 plus crowd bouncing to well honed set list which ended with the excellent Mary Keans Intreduction.

Great credit to the hosts from in through who insisted Gaeilge was the language of the night and making all thoise making the long trip feel very welcome.

Next up for BEO is Feb 5h when superstar Óisin Mc Conville rolls into town to educate the Youth of Donegal about the dangers of GAMBLING. There will also be a gig on the night headlined by local lads CLANNS and Derry DJ Mick Lockin.

Go dtí sin.
