Thread Name: Irish but Not Scottish Sessions. Why?
Subject: RE: Irish but Not Scottish Sessions. Why?
I'm no singer. I'm an enthusiastic joiner-inner (in fact, earlier this evening at a lady's 80th birthday party I was belting out "I'm a Believer"), and the only song I've ever sung solo was Wild Rover. It was New Year's Eve at our pub session. Somebody asked for it, and my five-pints-of-Guinness-fuelled self launched into it, fully expecting everyone else round the table to join in lustily. They didn't, the funking barstewards, and I didn't have the guts to stop. I mean, what could I do. There was no hole in the ground for me to get swallowed up...
