Hey Ted, nice playing with you folks today. You're sounding great on the flute, and the banjo (what little I heard!). I'm afraid some of those jigs sets were a little fast for my banjo pllaying. I'm working on it, but I basically think I SUCK! Anyway, I shall plug along.

Hi Ralph,
When we see each other next, we can figure out keys for ashplant/kitty/ taproom. I know Ashplant exists in a couple of keys (at least on recordings I have).

Hi, All -
That's about all I have at the moment. I also have some sets I don't remember ever playing at Mocha Maya's, as well as some sets with tunes (or versions of tunes) I can't find or that don't seem to make sense.
If anyone is interested in helping me track down the version we want to use, or has sheet music for something I'm missing, let me know off-list, please.
I can't figure out what key(s) to use for "Ash Plant / Kitty's Gone a-Milking / In the Taproom".
I can't find "Mighty Pat" for "Rose in the Heather / Cliffs of Moher / Mighty Pat / Morrison's".
"Trip to Carrigaholt" ? I can't find anything like this title.
I anyone has any help or suggestions, I'd appreciate it.

I agree with Arbo, I think those are right. One common variation I find in these tunes is in the B part of Ashplant where there are phrases that jump up. The...
Thanks, Ted and Arbo. I'm still going to have to look a little more closely, I think. I have "Ashplant" notated in G, Em, E dorian, F#m, and G dorian. The only...

I think that's a great idea, Ted. We could just have a list of tunes and the recordings with good versions or that we learned the tunes from. That would be...

Hi Bob, It's good you're getting into this. Just a caution, though. Over and over (and over) I've read and heard from experienced, credible people that Irish...
Brian, Thanks for chiming in. I think this perspective - a sight reader who has learned to learn and play by ear - is especially useful. Look forward to...
