Cromdubh The Guitar and Irish Traditional Music (93* d) RE: The Guitar and Irish Traditional Music 16 Apr 05

Any instrument played with respect for Irish Music should be welcome.

I`m aware of purists being apposed to guitars in sessions. Why?

Stated earlier many accepted instruments were at one time imported strange things, adopted and added to the flavour of Irish music.

I`m a bass player and I`ve recently bought a battery powered amp. Until now I was unable to physically join a session. Now I would love to take part and learn how the play Irish music.

I know there will be sessions I won`t be welcome. I won`t make a scene and sit, listen and hopefully learn.

But I hope I won`t always be on the outside of something I love.
