The first Annual Austin Fleadh (Pronounced Flah, the proper Gaelic word for Festival) debuts this week on Wednesday, otherwise known as St. Patrick’s Day o10. It’s a wonder this city doesn’t spontaneously combust during SXSW with all the parties and booze flowing … I mean, I personally feel like I’m going to bust, so multiply that times a million and you have how Austin probably feels. UM, anyway, the Flah, as I prefer to call it, because if I write Fleadh I want to pronounce it like my dog has been de-flead, is at 4th and San Jacinto from noon to 10pm.
Rumor has it that there will be Free Guinness when the doors open at noon, and by rumor I mean confirmed truth they aren’t publicizing except that they are here and now. Alongside the temporarily free favorite beverage of Ireland, there will be traditional fare of fish and chips, meat pies, along with the Guinness and Harp.
