The new neighbors: are they tacti-kool?

I know I have too much time on my hands to be writing about such an inane subject and should in...

Re: Unsolicited Entertainment?

I've seen a few people say that they play their whistles in parks. I assume they are referring to city parks or town commons or somewhere similar, and that they don't mean national parks or ammusement parks or some other definition. (Being that we have people from all over the world here, you can't...

Alba alto G for sale to finance wife's bodhran

Tis a sad story. I have had the Alba for 8 days. You could say it's new. Beautiful sound. No scratches, low miles. I figured I would get my wife a really nice bodhran; she deserves one and has been hinting about a new one. So there you go. Delivered to your door in the US for $145. Outside the US, a...

Simple, $$$. A Walton's is still a great improvement on a pizza box. But not as good as a plastic tray :lol: :lol: :lol: Nice one Davy :wink: I just don't get it why beginner bodhran players so often get recommended to start with a tourist drum for $50. I doubt that the same people would recommend ...
