Get your Irish on early at the Honest Pint
Are you one of those people whose holiday season would be incomplete if you couldn’t complain about how early the stores are putting out Christmas decorations every year? The Honest Pint has decided to go one better by getting a head start on St. Patrick’s Day with the introduction of their very own “Half Way to St. Patrick’s Day” celebration. The party’s happening Saturday, Sept. 13—and the craic will be mighty.
The show is jam-packed with a bevy of popular Celtic groups, including The Secret Commonwealth from Murfreesboro (featured last month in this publication), Celtic Keg Stand, a fantastic little three-piece from Murphy, NC who specialize in what they call “pub crawl” tunes, regional favorites Cutthroat Shamrock and even a local act whose name eludes me. “Moldy Magpies,” perhaps?
With food and drink specials, St. Paddy’s swag and a $3 cover if you wear “Paddy’s Day” attire, it’s the best time you can have outside of the Emerald Isle. If you’ve ever attended the delightful madness and chaos of the Pint’s annual Paddy’s celebration, then you know that six months in advance isn’t a moment too soon to get a head start on the fun. The big show runs from 7 p.m. to 2 a.m., so come early, stay late and get your Irish on at Chattanooga’s premier Irish locale, the Honest Pint!
