Feb 1st was Kilts Night at Doolin's….
The first Thursday of each month is Kilts Night
at Doolin's Irish Pub. Wear your kilt and recieve a pint of
Guinness. Above tartans are McDonald, Fraser Hunting, and
Macbitseach.
We celebrated with first timer Brent Campbell, enjoying a pint with Rob
McDonald – who also plays bagpipers and makes West Coast Kilts.

The Halifax Wharf Rats provide great musical entertainment every Thursday at Doolin's – photo Todd Wong
They play a mixture of celtic Maritme songs + great Canadiana songs
such as Bartlett's Privateers, Four Strong Winds, Stompin' Tom Connors'
The Hockey Song. There are also good old Celtic songs such as Tell My Ma too! And then they also play Wharf Ratted versions of U2's With or Without You, Johnny Cash's Ring of Fire, and Kiss' I Was Made For Loving You.
