Can't help smiling as I hear her tell what the Hurdy Gurdy is.. Interesting, indeed.

@PlebScrubber

I, personally, think it's very disrespectful to comment on a person's physical appearance in such a negative way - without considering that she is very special indeed, which is what should have struck you first. Well, anyway, I hope people don't have similar thoughts about you =/

Great intereview, very informative. I shall now listen to HG music here for the first time. Your instrument sounds great and loud and a little like bagpipes since you mentioned it. Best Regards Melissa the Loud

Loreena McKennitt and Qntal (Kintal) are just 2 polular groups who use the Hurdy Gurdy.

@kittyprydekissme the snare string and this whole concept of snaring is from the Tromba Marina I guess.

She's not ugly at all, and how does her looks have any bearing on anything? Talented and pretty. (((But I would put out there that she probably DOES have hairy armpits and legs)))
