Sorry Blandie, your dismissal of young people now playing traditional Irish music did it for me - probably one of the most mean-minded pieces of begrudgery I have ever encountered -

I think you're mixing me up with someone else there, Jim - or else misinterpreting my weariness of Riverdance blandness with dismissal of more 'traditional' forms. I know lots of people (young & old) who play traditional Irish music & I would never dismiss them for doing so. In fact, more power to them.

Play fair, eh? Serenity Now, indeed.
