Tony Fallon, host of "The Irish Show" on WGXC Sundays at 8 p.m., was all over East Durham on opening day, recording several interviews. He interviewed Paul Keating, the artistic director of Irish Arts Week, who was profiled by The Irish Echo writer Earle Hitchner in 2011 in The Wall Street Journal (see drawing). Wed., July 18 on WGXC from 7-9 p.m. Fallon and WGXC's Jess Puglisi will be roaming through East Durham, broadcasting interviews and performances on 90.7-FM.
