* Irish Music--The band Luck Money will perform its brand of traditional Irish folk music Sunday at 3:30 p.m. at the Raven Playhouse in North Hollywood. The four-man group boasts of more than 100 years of collective musical experience performing jigs, reels, hornpipes and other tunes. The instrumentation consists of fiddle, mandolin, guitar, tenor banjo, bodhran and whistles. The band’s name comes from the old custom of Irish merchants giving back a coin or two to paying customers in the hope of continuing prosperity and good luck. The playhouse is at 5233 Lankershim Blvd. $10. (323) 462-6844.
