But how does Seamus really feel about other less traditional instruments in Western Ireland? I seem to detect an ambivalence to the human race per se in his rage. "If you ain't dead, it ain't traditional." Interesting if brittle thought process. Perhaps, being locked into a unison mentality has its benefits ... if you only can play a melody oriented instrument. Double stops are probably not permitted within his own home.
Poor bludger - never experienced the joys of shape note singing. Poor deprived bludger ...
Mandola fever is permanent.
