OUR NEW NEWSLETTER:
We have not only changed the design but we have also changed our service provider for newsletter distribution. We will be sending another email from the old service provider just to catch anyone whose email address was inadvertently missed. So, if you receive an email with the subject line "Did you miss Ken O'Malley's newsletter this week?" you need not respond because if you received this newsletter it means that you are definitely on the mailing list.

NOTRE DAME CD: "FOREVER IRISH": Ken and his partner, Notre Dame graduate John Tabis, have written a number of rollicking tailgating songs in support of the most famous “Irish” football team in America, the “Fightin’ Irish” of the University of Notre Dame. These traditional Irish song melodies, blending a mix of football chanting and beer toasting, give the Notre Dame fans even more to cheer about.
This rousing collection of "Fighting Irish" tailgating songs (and two bonus tracks) outsold all other CDs in the campus bookstore and catalog in its first month of release. For more information (and how you can get a copy) talk to Ken at a show or go to
www.kenomalley.com/notredameforeverirish.cfm
This is a must have collectible for any Notre Dame fan and will make a terrific gift for those who live the dream that is Notre Dame football. Go Irish!
