SKETCHES from sessions at THE ROADSIDE TAVERN Lisdoonvarna 1998 - 2003

This book goes down memory lane. Walter loved to sketch people, especially musicians, enjoying a pint of Guinness and a Jameson at the same time. He left us more than 500 sketches. And because we were always on bicycles our radius was quite small. There were three pubs where he did most of his drawings: The Roadside Tavern in Lisdoonvarna, O'Conner's and McGann's in Doolin. This book will host 83 sketches from sessions at The Roadside Tavern in Lisdoonvarna, a short historical background of the pub, some words from one of the featured musicians and a short biography of Walter Schroeder.
