Been a fan of The Mahones for over 15 years. I love Finny as a frontman. The bassist just went full melty online using a slur towards handicapped people (the “R” word) further doubling down after throwing the word around and getting called out.

I’m a dad to a disabled child, and this hurt bad to see. I’m sure they have a lot of fans in our position. Just a bummer to see as a fan.

they are live on YouTube and im the only viewer! please join in

Apparently there is some debate on if this melody originated with Loch Lomond. When in doubt, the Irish did it first!

Haven't been practicing much so sorry the voice is a bit rough. Don't smoke, kids.

Hi all, can anyone recommend any sessions around Dublin that are open to new musicians? I've taken up the banjo and I'm keen to start joining in with some sessions. I previously played guitar so I've been able to progress a bit quicker than a complete beginner. At this stage, I can comfortably play tunes at session speed and have around 30 tunes in my repertoire, while continuing to learn a couple of new tunes every week. I feel like I've reached the point where playing with other musicians would really help me develop, but I'm not sure where it would be good to go or approach to ask could I sit in?

New Englander here and I’ve been pronouncing it celli (the plural for cello.)
