I plan on copying the Newspage updates here. Let me know if this seems helpful/useful.

7/1/01 Came Ye By Atholl? .is a Scottish slow air played by Teri Kessler on Overton low D. Mick Woodruff plays Planxty Dale Wisely, also in Slow Airs.

6/30/01 Dale and Rich have given the go-ahead to put our message board on the same site with the main Chiff&Fipple board. Maybe we can use it to revive Tune of the Week. (Like, defibrillate it.) Anyway, I'm putting up 3 new tunes: Clare Reels and Pigeon on the Gate in Reels, and Frost is All Over/Gander in the Pratie Hole in Jigs. (Worked on them 'till 2am, thank you very much.) I hope they sound okay in the morning.

6/29/01 Maybe we need a new category. Arto Villivirta sings in Irish,
Moll Dubh A'Ghleannea . to celebrate his upcoming visit to Ireland. I put it in Non-whistle.

7/4/01Another bleary-eyed session after everyone is in bed, doing a reel, The Wild Irishman. (Tony Higgins)

7/3/01Dave Auty plays Planxty Dale Wisely. Dave writes, "Can you thank David de la Barre for letting me use this excellent tune? " Done.

7/2/01 To correct an omission, David de la Barre ("Feadan") needs to given credit as the composer of the tune, Planxty Dale Wisely. Sorry, David.

7/23/01 A well-known newcomer to Clips and Snips, Mack Hoover sends what his friends call Mack's Jig. I believe it has at least one other name. Call me confused, but it reminds me of a hornpipe. I'll put it in misc for now.

7/28/01 O'Carolan's Farewell to Music in slow airs, Tony Higgins. My inspiration is Jerry O'Sullivan's version. Some day...
