Paddy Keenan once slept on my couch. Played my penny whistles, drank my booze and left. A perfect gentleman..... but what a shitty piper.

[bl44378]

@suschap Yeah - he's the worst piper in the world - what booze do you keep by the way?

[DoctorUnplugged]

the kesh jig, gotta be an all time favorite. Why can't we have more music like this.

[UISTMAN59]

@DoctorUnplugged We do.

Probably my favourite folk band. "Old hag you have killed me" classic!

Others bands - Chieftains - Pentangle - Kathryn Tickell - The Trees.

Check out dirty linen by Fairport Convention there's some live versions on you tube - the studio version is also top!

OK, so what's the 3rd tune (after Drink of Water and before Ballymote)?  Anyone?

[locomotive1804]

I don't what that man's name is in the middle, but he looks just like the cat playing the fiddle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Domitianvs]

@locomotive1804 That would be Kevin Burke. And yeah, he has a special look when playing.

[locomotive1804]

Aaah, Dónal Lunny.Still here is he? Still playing the mandolin? Still playing the bouzuki?

[goldenhelix]

amazing band. been listening to a couple cd's of theirs for a while now. one somewhat stupid question: do you say the name of the band with the "th" as in the word "thin" or do you say it like you would an irish-gaelic spelled word (like "h" in "hat)? would love to know.

[Magsterzb]

@goldenhelix

bothy? it said with th.

a bothy was a little cottage in the highlands (or where ever! ;) ) were usually the farm workers stayed. they would often jam and play music into the night as it was their only entertainment! :)

Anyone know what the last tune was called, I couldn't make out what he said, very nice tune, I'd like to find more versions of it, If anyone knows what it's called that would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!
