C&F June 5, 2004


Some nice music went on. Jack & Karina together were beautiful -- I love the conversation between two compatible players.

Our host, fingers flying. his Jerry-Tweaked Generation has a great "solid" sound, not plasticky or hollow or thin as Generations can seem to be. Easy to play, too.

NorCal and his wife wonder what next to heap upon their plate. Tony & his mother blurrily do laps around the table in the backgroud. She was a sweetheart.


Fipples & reeds. Incidentally, I've never heard 5 whistles playing together with no other instrumentation. Unsettling when it didn't come together, nice but kinda spooky when it did.

I had some quite good chicken breast, a touch of nice steak, and some fruit. I brought the Potcheen, I had an inkling that some in the group would appreciate it. "For Export Only, Banned In Ireland."

Mike having a quiet and intimate moment with a banjo. Next time I'll inflict my singing and concertina playing on y'all. But I won't bring a Bodhrán.
