GUEST,catlin How many of us play in a traditional band. (102* d) RE: How many of us play in a tradional band. 14 Mar 01


Yup, this too. I belong to "Rope Them Goats", located in State College, PA. We've not yet played in public, (as in played in a bar as a group) but will be playing for a wedding next month. After the wedding, we'll be thinning our numbers down to: 2 guitarists, one of whom also plays boudhran, and recorder (me. I play it like a pennywhistle). Although this Saturday I'll be playing in a bar with a good friend of mine who is a fiddler. If it's printed in "The Fiddler's Fakebook", or "Rise up Singing" or in any of Sylvia Woods' books, and is from the Brithish Isles, we've played it. O'Carolan is our forte. And, by-the-by, "Sheebag and Sheemore" is the wedding march, with "Eleanor Plunket" as the piece played during the wedding, and "Lord Inchiquin" as the recessional. Yum.
