This video pays respect to some of the finer things in life... Cathal's fiddling and Guinness!

[UISTMAN59]

Thanks for your note Flynn2522 . Should also mention Jim MacKillop, the maker of Cathal's fiddle and himself a great fiddler :-)

[lorgain2]

As usual brilliant scenes from the Uistmann and great music to match, thank you.

[UISTMAN59]

Thanks Oliver, glad you liked this one. :-)

[UISTMAN59]

Thanks for your note Jane. It's hardly needful to say "Enjoy the  Fiddles on Fire Festival " as I'm sure you will but - ENJOY IT ANYWAY :-)

Hi Mac, Thanks for your kind comments. :-)

I love your slideshows. I can't wait for spring to arrive. We had rain and snow today, so basically a muddy mess out there.

[UISTMAN59]

Thanks for your note Karla, Spring is trying to arrive here too, but the wind has been very could and we're still getting a bit of snow occassionally - but not for very long thankfully :-)

[Elderwilliam]

Wasn't familiar with the name but am now , good fiddler , nice post (as per the norm) uistman.

[UISTMAN59]

I hadn't heard of Cathal anywhere else except the one brief clip from years ago , which I posted already so I had to search about a bit. Great player though, and well known to folk who know a lot more than I do!

great music

[UISTMAN59]

Hi there boxplayer2. Thanks for your note - I'thought I'd replied before but couldn't have done it right :-)!

[boxplayer2]

no problem. i was hoping maybe u have some videos of urself playing. but idk if u play. im hoping to upload a few of my own soon.

Keep up the great work

[UISTMAN59]

No, boxplayer2 , I can only play whistle and harmonica and I wouldn't inflict myself on anyone!

[owlet1963]

I like the expression "inflict myself on anyone", lol. Give it a try and let us be the judges if it was a blessing or a curse, okay? seeing what is posted or inflicted onto us by so many who THINK they have talent but don't here on Youtube, you can at least have a try, what can you lose? Many hidden talents were discovered that way, so...let's hear it!

[ceilidh169]

@UISTMAN59 Ah go ahead you should then others could help you

[ceilidh169]

@UISTMAN59 that is, if you need it

[UISTMAN59]

Hi ceilidh169 I would need all the help I could get, believe me! :-)

[ceilidh169]

so post a video and ask for it

[WhiteTiger333]

Very nice music!  (Good beer, too).

[UISTMAN59]

Hi Lorraine. Thanks for your note. :-)
