Most traditional musicians I've heard in London play Irish music though, so that's probably why. Maybe in Scotland they play some strathspeys.Martin Millarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17179655815733439004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35151686.post-65522184832934532382008-03-01T07:14:00.000+00:002008-03-01T07:14:00.000+00:00Richard, you struck GOLD when you took on Lonely W...Richard, you struck GOLD when you took on Lonely Werewolf Girl! <BR/><BR/>And I will learn that tune.

Thank you for the link to the Tullochgorum. I was just wondering what it sounded like, having recently had the pleasure of hearing the Fabulous Lorraine play for a weekend. Fablo, it would be a delight to hear you do this piece.<BR/> <BR/>Anansi Boys isn't bad for a person who isn't fond of arachnids. Really, I've been leery of eight-legged critters for a very long time and Anansi Boys is great fun, even the parts with spiders.Rubiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12489017422221346200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35151686.post-30659866686449992632008-02-29T04:14:00.000+00:002008-02-29T04:14:00.000+00:00Ok, I can sense a "feeling" here for the spiders. ...Ok, I can sense a "feeling" here for the spiders. You or them, and I am backing you. Kind of like me and wasps, if they stay outside, they are welcome to live their lives in peace, but if they come in...It's war!<BR/><BR/>I am getting excited about the US release of Lonely Werewolf Girl, so many people are going to get what I am sure, all of you reading Martins books for years in Europe, already know...<BR/><BR/>Can anyone tell me things to pass onto people here?

That's a tune I need to learn, truly. Been meaning to since I first read Good Fairies...<BR/><BR/>And, uh, Martin. They ( The Spiders ) DO have friends everywhere...Haven't you ever read Neil Gaiman's "Anansi Boys?"<BR/><BR/>You might want to....FabulousLorrainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14889080113368458412noreply@blogger.com
