For the six months or so I have been having a little, private, quiet session on friday nights at my friend's place. For my friends and I, this is the night we are looking forward to during the week. On monday we're dreaming already about our little musical time, over shots of Jameson's, Gin, beer, etc. Unfortunately I'm the least tolerant to alcohol, so I had to cut down a little bit on alcohol if I wanted to be able to play the concertina in a civilized way, although my whistle is always around for when I'm really drunk, six holes is a little bit easier to manage than 30 buttons
Anyway, I recorded a few of those nights, and here's a clip of us playing my favorite waltzes. I really, really do love waltzes, especially the "sad" ones, it really touches me for some reason, and they are somewhat easy to play on the concertina, no rolls, which I can't play for sh^$, involved. The first waltz is american, so I would say it's the only american tune I play, but the other waltzes are played by the irish, although they are certainly not irish of origin. So I hope you enjoy, and I hope it can translate the mood in which this was recorded, and also explain why I love small sessons and can't stand the big crowds anymore.
Here's the clip
