this riff kicks ass. ever since i heard the rocky road to dublin by the dubliners i've been looking for upbeat catchy irish riffs. i usually come across slow melody type songs. but not this time. FINALLY.
I'll just keep my homoerotic comments to myself, and try to remain professional.
Thanks for the video, guy. I've gotten too used to playing with my fingers, I needed an interesting speed picking lesson. Yeah, that sounds about right. ^___^;;;;;
I found that starting on an upstroke with that first E and continuing the down-up-down-up pattern is easier when playing this riff because once you get to that B you're already set up for a downstroke.
That's just me anyways. Great video, great lesson, and outstanding riff. Keep up the good work bro. 5 stars =)
hey that sounds really good, can you send the tabs?

I love Speed and I love Irish Jigs and Reels!!!.
This Video could be made for me haha. But I hate to tune my guitar to DADGAD everytime i want to play such songs. So this is a very cool one :)
Do you have some other Songs which you could recommend me for playing it on guitar with Eadgbe standard tuning?. thanks.

This reminds me of Glasgow Kiss so much, nice riff/lick but i guess that's because you got the Rock Discipline DVD. Great job man.

this was written about 100 years before JP was born, Glasgow kiss is based on this kind of riff, though glasgow's in Scotland, not Ireland O_O
