Trying to find a tune

I know this is not really the place to ask about tunes but I have so little info that I wouldn't know where to start
it's called (something ) Point and it's inspired by an american nuclear power station - Bm ish

i heard it in a session in Greenside near gateshead - a mandoline player called Tom played it

There's a Turkey Point reactor in Florida.

Or Indian Point and Nine Mile Point plants in New York.

And Point Beach in Wisconsin.

Those are the only nuclear power plants in the US with "point" in their names. (Ain't google amazing?)

Indian Point is the second tune in the medley linked at the bottom of that page. It's on my (ever-growing) to-learn list.

What's up cheshire? Prowling the net for nuclear reactor information on a sunday afternoon, and no doubt conspiring again with hugo chavez.

Re: Trying to find a tune

This might be way off the mark, ..........but in the Seventies, there were tentative plans to build a Nuclear station at Carnsore Point in Wexford. Lots of Musical protests at the time.............http://www.struggle.ws/wsm/talks/carnsore2002.html

Re: Trying to find a tune

It's a great tune.

At our local session we play a set of Kerfunken followed by Indian Point. It's always one of the evening's highlights.
