@Ferret, Great party John!

Loved your beautiful playing of Danny Boy..... Very nice!smile

 

@Shell, You really did a great job playing Swallowtail Jig, and I also enjoyed hearing it on your Ming. clap

 

@KindaScratchy, Another great performance by the SS! 

Really enjoyed your rendition of Road to Lisdoonvarna, and the tin whistle was an extra plus! Nicely done Diane.smile

Great playing everyone!!  

I am trying to do something special, well special for me. Nothing really if you compare it to the Scratchy Sisters!!  Anyway I am having technical difficulties.  Actually I should do just a simple thing to fill in while I figure out the logistics.

OK, here is the promised second video for St Pat's Day

This one is Molly Malone

(And yes, I realize that the hat says 2011. Its just that I'm too bloody tight to buy a new one :) I didn't start playing the violin till March 2012)

Yay, I got both my little tunes in one take.  Will Ye Gang to Kelvingrove? and Cailin Mo Ruinsa.  I really love the second one.  It's a sweet little tune.
