I have a 3/5w switchable Blackheart combo. It's pretty dang loud for most settings (even garage rehearsal with a drummer I'm usually on 3w and turned to about 5-6). About $250. I just had some...

Need screen to stop this.

When I die, I want to come back as Sam Bush.

Get OUT!. Love the show, and have the soundtrack. My only complaint is that the songs end like TV interstitial music, with a "dramatic" finish.

Tina... Sweet design! I love the thistle/clef combo. I hear ya on the "load bearing limb" thing. When I had my gypsy done last year I could barely walk for over a week and my foot felt like a...

I spend about 90 nights/year in hotels and have never had something stolen from my room, ESPECIALLY whilst I'm sleeping. #I did lose a digital camera in New Orleans this spring, but I think that was...

I was in Dublin a month ago and also stopped into the Waltons (bought a couple of whistles... #eyed the bodhrans but between the carry-on space and exchange rate thought better).

Those Micky-Mouse ear "scrolls" do nothing for me.

What is this "cassette tape" of which you speak?

There were some interesting instrumental issues at Zoukfest this year (in Santa Fe, NM). Luke Plumb's Gil needed some significant work to adjust for the change of coming from Edinburgh to NM, and I...

Yep, I was just over there. Doggone expensive. Really glad that it wasn't coming out of my own pocket.

Pretty sure you can't swing a cat in Dublin and not hit a pub... #I'm looking for ones with some craic as well. #And a whistle store. #Gotta get a whistle....

Hi all...

My peripatetic schedule is taking me overseas starting today, and I'm going to make a weekend trip to Dublin part of the trip. Can someone suggest some good places for seeing music? I'm...

Will update soon... MANY pictures, amazing time with some great folks. Little sleep... I'm downloading photos to a memory card so I can post some shots from the road... I'm leaving tomorrow for...

Oooo, purty! Is it safe to say that we'll be hearing and seeing more of this next week at the `Fest?

Looks like she's playing a mod/minimalist bodhran...

When I saw Beth Patterson in NOLA last month she played "Wasted Years" on her bouzouki (about half tempo) and it was amazing. There is a lot of room to work with Maiden stuff.

I see on Elderly (unless I misunderstand the categorization) that instruments are "VG+ or Excellent but need the following repairs: refret, repair cracked top, refit neck..."
