Lego Irish traditional music

A short stop-motion animation of Irish traditional music using Legos. Having fun with the kids on a Saturday afternoon. Tried to make the Uilleann piper look like Paddy Keenan using the Lego Indiana Jones. Had to pull his arms out of the body to make them meet in the middle to hold the chanter, so they kept falling off every other shot. Also had to remove the flute player's left hand to make the correct grip on the flute, so if you look close you can see it's not attached to the arm. No way to get the banjo players picking hand to move, oh well.

YEAH, FINALLY FOUND THE FULL COMMENT. I HAD TO HIT THE PULL-DOWN BUTTON TO SEE IT.

YOU DID SUCH A GREAT JOB WITH THIS! I LINKED IT TO MY FACEBOOK. KEENAN'S CERTAINLY A GREAT PIPER. I'VE GOT SOME OF HIS RECORDS WITH THE BOTH BAND; AND HAVE HAD THE CHANCE TO MEET HIM A FEW TIMES AND DANCE TO HIS MUSIC. THE LAST TIME WAS AT NORTHEAST LOUISIANA CELTICFEST IN MONROE LAST YEAR.
