All the same instruments too. I didn't realize I missed it until I watched your videos.

None of what of you see today. And you would be surprised how much the four girls in your clip looked like the joy in dancing in that performance. <br />Oh, and on the musical level: if you ever get tired of the fiddle, why not try the bodhran? It looks easier, but then again, I might be completely wrong!Marahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04464946195661953578noreply@blogger.com
