This list is subject to
change. |
Check it out - we now have a larger variety of
sessions than many major U.S. cities. If you are coming for the first time
or traveling a great distance to attend a session, you should verify that the
session is still alive & well by contacting the person in right-hand column.
Support these sessions by stopping in for some food and drink. The bottom
of the list shows what happened to 5 Irish sessions over the past couple of
years.
