Enjoyed that. Thanks. Your timing is spot on and the D chanter isnt overbearing, sounds fine.

Other thoughts:

Good flute player.
and
Guitar way too loud.

Tim, that was fantastic. I really enjoyed it. Looks like you’re playing your Whitmer set?

Tim,

I enjoyed that, keep up the good work!

I agree with Boyd on the guitar level, but video camera audio is rarely if ever great quality.

Well spotted, you must be psychic or have extremely great vision. Maybe just inside information, Khan :stuck_out_tongue:

I have to say I prefer this setting of Maguire’s Kick (aka the Lonesome Jig):

We had trouble hauling the grand piano around the pubs. Plus a 16 year old can only master so many instruments at a time.

Timmy

PS Nice to know the alternate name.

Tim, when playing in public like that, don’t blink you eyes so much. The downward rush of air caused by your eye-lashes can cause your back D to change colour (usually green to red), and your ghost B# to rise to a Cb.

Just kidding - great videos. The bouzuki player is very good.

yea great sound you have there dude got to say however you look realy uncomfortable playing your set looks like you could damage a ligament in your shoulder before long.
I would look at adding a couple of inches to your bag-bellows conecting pipe.
but what do I know?
