Been playing this one for years, and I’d like to know what name, or names, it has. As ever, apologies for my primitive skillz at ABC notation; F = F#, and C = Cnat. Gmaj chune.
Looking over all the names it has per thesession.org, I have a particular liking for “The Sneem”.
Oh, yeah. I recall now that it gets called “Ask Our Dan” by some hereabouts. Someone told me it was called Gneevgullia (or however you want to Anglicise that. Might as well go with Gníomh go Leith), but that didn’t seem right to me somehow. I’m not seeing that as an alternative name, anyway.
There is The Top of Maol, also called The Groves of Gneeveguilla (more fun with Anglicisation), but that’s a different polka entirely.
Sneem is a place in Kerry. Nice place, too. It’s where the Irish Government dump a lot of its less obvious sculpture. The big Primary-coloured I-beam structure on the village green is hard to miss, and the sculpture park “where the Fairies went” is a pleasant place to nurse your pint, but there are others, less obvious. There is a Chinese Panda on hedgerow where you might easily miss it.
