The first two were The Broken Pledge and The Green Groves of Erin. Number three I didnt know but at that speed it could have been anything. What's clever about playing tunes at that speed, ruins it for me!

thanks for the quick response. Speed is'nt everything thats for sure, some tunes can sound exciting at faster speeds where some lose their identity.

I don't know any of the tunes, but I did enjoy the Banjo playing. The guitarist isn't bad either. On the subject of playing at neck breaking speeds, I take the point about some tunes losing their identity, but perhaps some folk are just a little envious that they can't do it!
