SPAW.. Burn Bodhran Players huh.. Wouldn't that put an interesting twist to all of those fiddle players that can't keep a beat worth a darn..I am so fed up with all of the Bodhran comments that I have heard over the past 20 years I COULD SCREAM!!!!. What would the Chieftans be without Kevin Connors.. now I ask you!!!! Granted some folks just don't get it gee maybe you don't...ANYWAY.. I have a little poem about this subject... written for my husband who is a luthier....." Music should be as easy to play as it is to hear. For you it is.. The wood the strings, the color ,the way it feels, all music..Even before we hear the sound...I'ts there ..It's you. Like a flower before it blooms...We know its a rose or a daffodil... but when it happens..each time...it's wonder it's you... it's music... " KGH
