Punnish nicknames for tunes

Too tempting, I did :astonished: :boggle:

Its all new to me, and a laugh riot they are. :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

buckets of more and more (bucks of oranmore)

The awkward *****r (the clumsy lover)

“Tell her, Ian!”

… and, almost along the same sort of lines, from the world of jazz, “What’s this thing called, love?”

Get Off My Land = Give Me Your Hand
The Cosh = The Kesh.
The second tune is played so frequently at my session, you feel as though you have been beaten around the head with it sometimes.

You need to get yourself to somewhere relatively Kesh-free, I would say. :slight_smile:

I can think of one for The Athol Highlanders…

Screw the Donkey

Presumably not to be confused with “irish cow tipper”

:smiley:

Bogman said “Jig of Slugs” - I’ve heard more often “Jar of Slugs.”

“The Waltz of Liz Carroll” can puzzle or amuse people when it turns out to be a jig.

I’m too new here and far too bashful to mention the other name for Banish Misfortune!

I call it “The Jug of Slugs” - more euphonious. :slight_smile:
