 What
it's Like
Irish Kevin's is an open air bar with really great live music. We were reminded of some of the bars in New
Orleans. It is right in the middle of all the partying on Duval Street. Every night we walked by it was always
packed with people clustering outside the door singing songs. We finally made it into the bar on a Monday
night. A man with nothing but a guitar put on one of the most entertaining shows we had experienced. He
started doing a cluster of rock's influential love songs. It was amusing because he sped up the beat so it was
fit the pace of the bar and everyone could sing (or scream) along to the lyrics. He would sing just enough
of the song for us to belt out a few lines and then he's switch to something else. He sang complete songs as
well from all different bands like Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin, John Cougar, Boston, Poison, U2 and much more.
Later he brought some girls at the bar up on stage and had them dance. He took requests and could play
anything that was suggested. We were having so much fun we stayed for about two hours and the guy played the
entire time. In the back of the bar they have t-shirts, sweat shirts and other thing for sale. I had to buy
myself a tank top to remind myself of the incredible time we had there.
Drinks
To us this seemed a beer drinking bar so we all had Yuenling (beer from PA). Key West is the first place
may of us tried Yuengling and we were sold. You defiantly have to try it if you are a beer drinker.
