Dickie O'Neal's Irish American Pub Restaurant debuts Lucky Tongue LIVE to the Saturday Night Live lineup of music acts.

Lucky Tongue was formed in 2006, first playing in rural pubs in North Idaho. The band, comprised of a father, Blaine, and his two sons, Dylan & Blade, quickly caught on fire. They had a distinctive magical influence that left the audience spell bound. Soon they were being booked at venues in venues in Seattle and Portland.

The band was then signed on by the Beyer agency in Las Vegas. There they enjoyed a short season of regular work sharpening their skills before leaving for Southern California, where the beach was accessible for surfing and the environment was condusive with creativity.

Recently the men received an invitation by Sir #Paul McCartney to visit him before his concert at the Hollywood Bowl. Backstage he paid homage to the bands respect to him and the music of the Beatles. Lucky Tongue is presently mastering their original CD entitled "King Munster's Last Dream ".

They have gone back to the roots of #Rock N Roll adding the energy of youth while surprising the audience of the world. The old classics of the 60's are played with such profound dynamics that the reform of that generation is revisited in the hearts and minds of listeners from age 20 to 70.

When this band rips into the song "Stepping Stone" by the #Monkees, the tambourine isn't the only thing shaking, but the heart of the flower child within each one of us. The audience is then mesmerized and dumbfounded as to why they ever compromised by listening to modern country music! The power of the music; the power of the #60s, the power of rock - is all that is needed to break the spell and bring them back home to what they are longing for.

If you have heard enough schizophrenic music by other bands desperately grasping for something new, then you will find sanctuary in the sounds of Lucky Tongue.
Lucky Tongue performs LIVE at Dickie O'Neal's Irish American Family Pub Restaurant in Palm Springs California - December 21 2013.

Dickie O'Neal's Irish Pub Recipes - Grammy Rose's St. Columba's Biscuits

Grammy Rose's St. Columba's Biscuits


Dickie O'Neal's Irish American Family Pub Restaurant's homemade biscuits come from my Grammy's recipe.  Grammy made these biscuits because they were easy, and cheap to make.  During WWII, my Grammy would donate biscuits to impoverished church members that relied on the church to feed families during this time period.

With the amount of biscuits that were made,  my Grammy used a premix of Bisquick, (since eggs and oil were a luxury at that time).

Enjoy the taste of this biscuit recipe!

Total Time:  23 minutes
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time:  8 minutes
Yields: 20
4 1/2 cups Bisquick
1 1/3 cups orange juice
2 teaspoons sugar
2 tablespoons butter, melted
Melted butter, for brushing
Preheat oven to 450°F.

Mix the Bisquick, buttermilk and sugar together in a bowl.

Add the melted butter into the batter.

Stir until a soft dough forms.

Turn out onto a well floured work surface.

Knead 20 times (this is a very forgiving dough), and don't be afraid to get additional flour into the dough.

Roll 1/2 thick, or thicker if you prefer towering biscuits.

Cut out into 2" rounds (or your preferred size).

Place close together on an ungreased baking sheet. 
Brush tops with melted butter.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes; I usually find 8 minutes is enough.
When you remove the biscuits from the oven, brush the tops with melted butter again.

A little bit of local knowledge goes a long way - and with this in mind, we at Dickie O'Neal's Irish Pub in Palm Springs have prepared a brief guide to vacationing in Ireland.

Although remember - if you really want to fit in with the locals, you might want to avoid expressions like "vacationing" - use "going on holiday" instead.




You might also want to include the expression, "Where are yar' lucky charms?" in as many conversations as possible - the Irish will surely love you for that. (Note the sarcasm here...)


Driving

Don't go onto the roundabout (traffic circle) the wrong way round. 

The rule is you enter to your left, and give way to traffic from your right. 

And it’s petrol, not gas.

Not going to Northern Ireland  
There’s really no excuse not to go to Northern Ireland. Even if you only have a few days, it’s still worth a visit, and Belfast is only a little over two hours away from Dublin by train. Derry (also called Londonderry) is worth checking out – especially at Halloween, when the entire city dresses up in costume.

Visiting Dublin – and only drinking in Temple Bar
Temple Bar is  Dublin’s cultural center just south of the River Liffey. It has plenty of museums, stores, bars and restaurants. But all this is best left for the day time – at night, it becomes considerably less attractive. If you are looking for a good night out, try any number of the bars along Camden Street. George’s Street and Wexford Street.


Not going to a hurling or Gaelic football match
Hurling is sometimes described as a cross between lacrosse and hockey, but that doesn’t really do the sport any justice because it is unlike any other sport in the world. It’s well worth going to see a game – and the same goes for Gaelic football, which looks like a cross between soccer and rugby. 


The best time to see these games is during the summer when the season's just getting going. It gets increasingly difficult to get tickets towards the end of the season. Dublin’s Croke Park, the main GAA stadium is Ireland, includes a museum that explains the evolution of Ireland’s native sports.


Forgetting to claim your tax back
Taxes are generally already added into the cost of most goods and services in Ireland. As a tourist, you are eligible to reclaim this tax back at the airport – just remember to keep your receipts.


Deciding you don't need a map or a GPS locator
Ireland is notoriously difficult to navigate with signposts often impossible to find. Map vital, GPS essential.
 
Being afraid to ask for directions

Get used to it guys. In Ireland you will need to drop the shyness and the macho outlook and ask.
 
Using a fake Irish accent

Irish people hate it when Yanks or anyone for that matter try it on. Not recommended.
 
Expecting only warm weather

Big mistake, no matter what the forecast says, rain can happen at the drop of a, well raindrop, very unpredictable and sometimes annoying.

Lucky Tongue was formed in 2006, first playing in rural pubs in North Idaho. The band, comprised of a father, Blaine, and his two sons, Dylan and Blade, quickly caught on fire. They had a distinctive magical influence that left the audience spell bound. Soon they were being booked at venues in venues in Seattle and Portland. 

The band was then signed on by the Beyer agency in Las Vegas. There they enjoyed a short season of regular work sharpening their skills before leaving for Southern California, where the beach was accessible for surfing and the environment was condusive with creativity.

Recently the men received an invitation by Sir #Paul McCartney to visit him before his concert at the Hollywood Bowl. Backstage he paid homage to the bands respect to him and the music of the Beatles. Lucky Tongue is presently mastering their original CD entitled "King Munster's Last Dream ". 


They have gone back to the roots of #Rock N Roll adding the energy of youth while surprising the audience of the world. The old classics of the 60's are played with such profound dynamics that the reform of that generation is revisited in the hearts and minds of listeners from age 20 to 70.

When this band rips into the song "Stepping Stone" by the #Monkees, the tambourine isn't the only thing shaking, but the heart of the flower child within each one of us. The audience is then mesmerized and dumbfounded as to why they ever compromised by listening to modern country music! The power of the music; the power of the #60s, the power of rock - is all that is needed to break the spell and bring them back home to what they are longing for.
