03/18/12 4:00pm Bluegrass Jazz

We'll meet for a late afternoon of swinging bluegrass tunes at Paddy Reilly's. It's a casual event and place where locals bring their instruments and drop in for some bluegrass jam sessions. They have talent. You don't have to if you're just planning on listening. The bar doesn't have food, but one can order from any place around if you're hungry.
