Who's the bodhran player?
Me, that seems like ages ago. Come a way since then, I was train beating all the way through that HA!
@@jjdrmr We've all come a long way man hahaha
I think you're a good bodhrán (deafener - i mbéarla) player, which is a rare species. Great music as well!
My much missed old Irish Da used to play this on his mouth organ, I provided the percussion section via my Ma's wooden spoons on the wooden kitchen table. The memory of those days brings tears to my 75 year old eyes. My wonderful Da used to make Bodhráns in his spare time, from being a coal miner, part time slaughter man, & small farmer. He used the circular frame from a sand screen to make the circular frame (sanded to a perfect finish and painted with shamrocks/harps etc. by his drinking buddy) The only downside to this, is that he is that he used pigskin (bought locally) to complete the Bodhráns.
this is an absolute and unmitigated joy, thank you
This really makes me miss sessions! You guys sounded fantastic this night!!!!
Thanks so much - and me too!!
What a blast!
Great lively tunes

Wonderful!
Thank you for sharing :)
Bloody brilliant!
Good stuff!
I loved hearing the Sally Gardens. Could you please post a tutorial in the future on your flute? Thanks.
Sure, good idea!
Thank you very much. My flute arrives in a couple of weeks and I'm really looking forward to playing it.
The girl playing the Cittern is that Frances Cunningham ?
I seen her with Maggie Drennon in six mile bridge band in Ann Arbor , Mi many yrs ago
Their music was Great I bought all their CDs on the spot
Ha - yes, that's her, the 6MB days feel like eons ago :)
I love this so much ❤️ makes my heart so happy 😁
Great stuff.
Love it!! Hup!!
Two too many Banjos 😁 Aris le do thoil!
Where is your session?
McNamara's Pub, Nashville, TN
whistletutor Is Eion Dillon the uilleann piper still living there? Great player!
Eamonn? Yeah, he comes down from time to time - he's a monster player for sure
whistletutor if I'm down that way I'll have to pop over. I'm not a monster piper, but I'm ok. 😃
Hey Sean!!
While I'm sure it's against the law somewhere for not including 27 banjos, but could you and your wife and friends have a go at "Orange Blossom Special" or "Foggy Mountain Breakdown"? There's more than enough musical talent in this video. And if you did it with a bagpipe in the ensemble, you'd have something unique and maybe viral...
I think you could "knock it right over the center field wall into the parking lot"...
Hahaha - well you wouldn't want me attempting anything in the Bluegrass or Old Time world, that wouldn't go well. :)
Sessions often play "traditional" tunes. This term seems ambiguous. How old must a tune be to to be deemed "traditional"? Also, do you find having eaten to much adversely affects your playing? A stuffed belly seems to disrupt my breathing and playing.
"Traditional" is definitely an indistinct term. In my experience folks tend to consider a tune "new" if it was written in the past 20-30 years or so but that's certainly not a hard and fast rule. More accurately, a tune is "traditional" if it's become a part of the tradition - i.e. it's one that crops up at sessions - regardless of whether it's 20 years old or 100. As for the food, yes, I usually eat a big lunch on session days and skip dinner.
whistletutor I think your definition of a tune that crops up at sessions is sensible - some new tunes just catch on and spread. We were playing Dusty Windowsills last night - it's a good example.
Um....I think traditional means the style (jig, reel etc) and acoustic instruments. So new jigs e.g. are written all the time and played at trad sessions. I don’t think it has to mean a tune is old, although many of them are.
