Great, now I have a Mariachi version of Danny Boy running through my head.

bright garish maraca

Tell us something.: Been a fluter, citternist, and uilleann piper; committed now to the way of the harp.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.

You can laugh. I'm still working on my Irish Trad version of Ceilito Lindo... as a jig...

I sidelined the boys when I told 'em about this one at band practice yesterday. Their dropped jaws and bulging eyes were very gratifying. :thumbsup:

Hey, if the Irish can co-opt the bouzouki, why not the guitarron?

Guitarron - pfft! All those bass guitarists will be picking that one up. But the Harp! Mariachi bands don't use the harp any more because it's too unwieldy. But a Celtic harp! That could turn things around!

I'm looking forward to hearing about trumpets at sessions...
