The Mojos were back in Norway again where they had a great time, as always!

They would like to thank Olaf, Serge, Bally, Gemma and the rest of the gang for looking after them.

The band will be making one of their rare hometown appearances on March 17th at the Courthouse from 3pm to 6pm. Fresh from Norway, this should be a cracking gig!

Happy Christmas and a merry new year from MojoKelt!

We'll see you all in 2011!

The other band members would like to say "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" to Adrian. We won't tell you how old he is, but let's just say he's old enough to get served in bars!

Happy Birthday Adrian!

MojoKelt would like to once again thank Olaf, Erica, Bally, Gemma and all the staff at the Dubliner for the great time they had at the Dubliner in Oslo. More thanks go to Stevie and Sean Hampton who had the band over to their home for a great combined 18th and housewarming party! Everyone had such a great time they can't wait to go back!

Tom was playing with Jane Dowd in Matt Molloy's bar in Westport, Co. Mayo recently and gave Matt, Seamus, the bar manager, the staff and twenty lucky people, a copy of the "Live at the Grange" cd.

So if any of you are looking in, MojoKelt would like to say a big "Hello!" and hope to see you in Westport at some stage soon!

MojoKelt are off to Norway again in August, back to see all our friends in Oslo and the Dubliner.

The Mojos have been quiet over the last few weeks - this being the traditional holiday in Northern Ireland.

The guys have been using their time wisely, planning recording sessions and writing and planning new tunes.

Tom recently played live on the Charlie McGettigan show with Janet Dowd and gave Charlie a copy of the CD, so if you're out there Charlie we hope you liked it!

We hope to have photos soon!

Brendan has been under the weather recently with a vist to hospital required.

We know you'll all wish him the best and a speedy recovery.
