Here's the lowdown on Kansas City's 8th Best Irish Band! Cameron Russell (guitar/vocals) and Shane Borth (violin) have been playing music together since high school...which for them has been a long, long time. Michael Cochran (drums) met Shane in 1999 while both attended the Conservatory of Music at UMKC. There was a 2 hour jam session/audition and Michael was in the band. At this time the Theis twins (you know who you are!) filled out the lead guitar and bass as Circadian Rhythm was born. In a local pub named Harling's, Shane and Cam began to learn Irish tunes through Eddie Delahunt. Then Circadian Rhythm became Self-Same, whilst Michael dropped out for while. Long story short...they played together again on New Years Eve of 2006 as the Irish Blugrassical Band Flannigan's Right Hook and have been rockin out ever since!!!

Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001
Where traditions are not so rare; Sea, country and works scent the air; A multitude of monuments, Planted tubs and patterned pavements.
The longish pedestrian malls; The remnants of defensive walls; Historic buildings are a gauge Of the respect for heritage.
Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; Estuaries guarded by shields; Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; Romantic-ruin go-betweens.
Rivers in parts licked by trees, Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, And crossed by practical delights - Varied spans, forming pleasing sights.
Fine churches headed at Durham; Football kits ad infinitum; Kept castles - one for study; Masonry behind masonry.
And, with moulding-works out that way, It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?
