The summer sun added to a wonderfully warm atmosphere at Eamonn Gillespie’s Concert With The Greats. Click on the arrows to see Siobhan McNamara's photos of the event

The crowd overflowed from the large marquee in the grounds of Bruckless Community Centre, just yards from Eamonn’s beautiful home and gardens where the concert was held in previous years.
This event really had it all, and will no doubt be talked about for a long time to come. Top notch music was provided by a star-studded line-up including Brian Kennedy, Altán, Mike Denver, Brendan Shine, and The Showband Show featuring Keith, Frankie and Lorraine McDonald.
The house band and Ballyshannon Brass and Reed Band added their performances, and of course talented host Eamonn delighted the audience with an impeccably delivered selection of songs. MC Noel Cunningham also sang, much to the delight of those gathered.
Guests were made to feel extremely welcome by Eamonn, Noel and all the team, with refreshments available throughout the event.
The event included a fundraising raffle in aid of the Church of St Joseph and St Conal, and for Bruckless Community Centre. Among the prizes was a holiday of a lifetime to Dubai, sponsored by Declan Boyle of McCafferty’s Bar, Donegal Town. Hugely popular winners of this fabulous prize were Jim and Rosaleen Boyle who have been organising Sandra's Motorcycle Run for many years.
