A melodeon and guitar with a bit of amplification and a few locals at the bar who took a mic and sang occasionally.'

If that's an 'authentic' session then why don't why just all commit suicide tonight?

Jim Carroll I haven't a clue what you're on about. If you knew amything aabout traditional music youd know about Noel Hill and money and the pocket reference!!! Ive seen you leaning on bars many a time but never heard you play. Whenever you do I'll revise my opininon.
