The kids are musicians and would love to see some lively Irish music this month. We're in DC, but can drive out for somewhere with good food and music. But I'd like to avoid a total drunken bar filled w/university students

The Irish bars won't be filled w/university students...but likely drunken patrons.
I don't know...that's 1/2 the fun. We took our kids to plenty of Irish pubs around Ireland with music and dancing and inebriated patrons. Most drunken adults are not particularly rowdy.
