The Bouzouki player looks sooo much like a character from Asterix and Obelix but I forget who - can anyone help me?!
-
@BoatmanCalling Actually never mind, I think it's johnny moynihan. Are you heading to the Vicar Street gig tonight Bilko?
-
Who is playing the Bouzouki here?
-
Holy god that's some wig on Christy,
-
The power in Christy's Bodhran is unreal.

@patchbod Remember none of the musicians ran the recording mix. I've done scores of recording and broadcast appearances playing uilleann and highland pipes, and unless I nearly threatened murder to the sound mixer it was only 1 in a thousand of them that could come close to capturing the instrument and band sound right. --But that 1 in a thousand, he'd hit it right in maybe 3 or 7 seconds, and he'd think we were the idiots for doubting him. Oh what a world.

The jig they play in the beginning is called "Garrett Barry's jig"! Should be added to the description/tags I think! :)
-
Feck sake lads! He's playing like that not to drown out the whole thing. Ive seen bodhran players beating the bodhran that hard that the reat of the session could not be heard. Pure disaster when that happens hey!

>hear legendary band playing awesome tunes
>discuss whether by far the LEAST important instrument is hit with a stick or a hand

I think all this chat about how he's playing his bodhran is a bit silly - everyone's forgetting that considering he's playing with planxty, he probably wanted it to sound like that? There are such a thing as different styles and different ways of playing to create different atmospheres, and I think that playing it with no dampening makes it a lot more dancy and medieval sounding. The fact we're commenting on it now shows that it's out of the ordinary, and the sign of a good musician is just that
