Friday night at Shamrock Irons, 9pm start. The pub's got that laid-back weekend energy where you can actually hear the band, grab a Guinness, and settle in without fighting a crowd. The kitchen stays open through the sets, so you can order proper Irish fare or hit the late-night menu without missing a song. Tables and standing room both work here, and since there's no cover most nights, you can post up with a Guinness and shepherd's pie without planning ahead.
