Tonight it was Celtic tunes, with the Boston Celtic Music festival folks. I didn't realize it would be like this, but it ended up being 11 really short acts over the course of about three hours, which was nice. Many of the acts were duos, one a father and daughter pairing (the daughter was 12!). It ranged from pipe and fiddle couplings to a 9-person ensemble to a solo a cappella voice, but it was all Celtic music and all lovely. As a bonus, our table won a few of the raffle items including two CDs and an Irish drum (!).
Just before I was heading out to Club Passim, I got a message that a friend was having a birthday gathering at Grafton St., an Irish "pub" (strong word -- it's way too fancy for that really) also located in Harvard Square. So Passim ended up being sandwiched between hanging out with birthday boy and co. before and after, and at the end of the evening we had a nightcap at another friend's place.
