A Prairie Home Companion: Two More Hours (3/15/2014)
Coming to you this week from The Fitzgerald Theater in downtown Saint Paul, Minnesota, it's a live broadcast of A Prairie Home Companion with Garrison Keillor. With special guests, sparkling Irish vocalist Karan Casey, the French-styled sounds of Dan Newton's Café Accordion Orchestra, singer Aoife O'Donovan, and pianist and clarinetist Butch Thompson with vocalist Hilary Thavis. Plus, the Royal Academy of Radio Actors, Tim Russell, Sue Scott, and Fred Newman, The Guy's All-Star Shoe Band, and the latest News from Lake Wobegon.
I am jealous of all this talent, especially the piano playing

Oh my I love Aoife O'Donovan - you can revisit her with the Moonlighters singing “The Lakes of Pontchartrain” to break your heart. From the November 16, 2013 broadcast http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAX2VGgAGQA

This is called "Home" and I wish I could accurately spell the Saoi mentioned by Aoife and Karan. A little help, my keyboard bound friends?
I’ll get right to the point, Mr. Noir. Monday is St. Patrick’s Day and St. Paul has a fine big parade downtown but there are rumors that there is a float sponsored by Lutherans and the parade committee has asked me to stop them.
