Subject: RE: New videos from michaelr's band
Sorry - I wasn't being clear - perhaps not quite enough for my taste. It's not a question of tempo - more a question of energy and attack. But that's just my personal taste - my idea of energy and attack may be quite different from yours!

Could I be very cheeky and offer a track from the band I play in? We've just lost our box player - gone to live in France - so the lead instruments here are fiddle and mandolin. The drummer and bass player also play in a punk band, so there's a lot of attack there! The track itself is "Glen Kabul" by the Scottish band Old Blind Dog - the original, played on pipes, is well worth a listen.

I'm not saying our playing is any better than yours - and we play for dancing, rather, than in concert - but we do bring a kick to the music.
