**Edit: Yes, blindness is upon me. The tune is "Garech's Wedding", as clearly stated at the end of the video description.

Anyway, it was an interesting link to follow and I enjoyed following it further and listening to some more of Colleen's videos and audio recordings. So, thanks for that.

Colleen's a great player, and very nice too! We Michiganders were very sad to lose her to Ireland...
