Poor Ould Goat	The music of Poor Ould Goat is a melting pot of Irish, Scottish, traditional, global folk, world rhythms, and rock. Played on a variety of traditional and non-traditional instruments from all over the planet, the sound of Poor Ould Goat is Hooley at the Irish pub meets party at the hoppin' bar. The shows are informal and entertaining with sing-alongs, shout-alongs, dance-alongs, and drink-alongs. It is not uncommon to see a former Céilí dancer give it another whirl to Morrisons Jig or the like. Rowdy old Irish women shout out song names to the band and often have to be quieted with an old favorite, like Jameson’s Whiskey. Maybe you're new to Irish Hooleys, Celtic melodies, or traditional instrumentation. There is more than enough going on to capture even the uninitiated person's ear. There's the revelry associated with old favorite sing-alongs, stories of drunken nights past, and the hearty flow of brews and spirits. Even the least Irish person in the crowd can find Poor Ould Goats sets entertaining. With Poor Ould Goat around, everyone finds a little Irish in them at the end of the night.
