I was thinking about getting an accordion, and seeing this only increased my interest for it. Not only because the Pogues is my favourite band, but also, it looks really great. I want a banjo too, and a tin whistle.. gah. How much did you pay for your accordion? And how long did it take before you could play this well?
Anyways, amazing job! Hope you're still playing the accordion. :)
My accordion was $800 Canadian (which is about the equal to U.S. Dollars) and it was used but in perfect condition. It didn't take long to learn how to play the accordion. If you know how to play the piano then your basically halfway there. It can be trick at times, but very rewarding. And yep I am still playing. I am hoping to find time soon to put some new vids up soon.
You put a lot of feeling into your playing....such a refreshing thing to see. So many accordionists are just interested in "showing off" their talents. You appear to be 'enjoying' yours. Keep it up, honey.
Will you please tell me the name of the polka tune you played before.

Another little tid-bit. In the lyrics it is "a stor" (Gaelic for "my precious"), not "ashore"
