It's all happening in Ennis this week lads.
Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann kicked off on August 13 and runs in the town until August 21.
It's widely regarded as the most important events in the traditional music calendar with performances from musicians, singers and dancers all competing to become All-Ireland champion.
And this year the one and only Michael Flatley opened the festival, but this time he wasn't dancing.
To open the festival the Lord of the Dance took to the stage to play the flute.

Who even knew the man could play the flute?! Turns out he's been playing it for over 50 years now.
Speaking to Dermot & Dave Michael said, 'This beautiful instrument was made in 1836 in Covent Garden. I got it from Paul Davis who lived here in Ennis and it's the greatest instrument I've ever played.
'I've had many flutes but I always go back to this, the old black magic.'
