In reply to ‘Tip McToole’ ; the only point of relevance you make is ‘I Don’t understand’ because you quite obviously DON’T KNOW or UNDERSTAND what LIVE Irish Traditional music is about.

Great Traditional Irish music. Anyone who doesn’t understand this lovely music shouldn’t make silly comments about it. It sounds just lovely to me. Well done and Up Kerry.

Once again Comhaltas has given the wrong name for the second tune...it’s called ‘John Dwyer’s’

Sorry, scratch that previous email, please.  I didn’t realise there was a third tune, which is, indeed ‘Devanney’s goat’
