This is what families should do to connect. Pick up an instrument and play their hearts out. We Americans just sit on the couch and watch Glee. That's how we expand out minds...

Bones coming at 2:00? Or is it the effect of the second bodhran? If it's bones, you have a heck of a good player there.

[edelahaye]

OK. I was quite sure that you was a banjo player, considering the way you master 'triplets' (aka 'shakes').

Good shot anyway.

[edelahaye]

Because listening to the music is taken seriously in Ireland.

[edelahaye]

absolutely fantastic.

[fastabulus]

absolutely superb playing! technically solid and the improv with that generally very simple tune works wonderfully. Do post more, as it is a great pleasure to hear solo zouk live.
