Subject: RE: the english and irish traditions
Allan - that does fit with what I've noticed, but: the more musically knowledgeable Irish visitors do tend to be curious about Scottish music as well. An Irish tourist who can't carry a tune in a bucket will often ask for Raglan Road or the Fields of Athenry, particularly after their third pint, but one who's a competent flute player will usually want to hear some pipe marches.
