Garech's Wedding is the name of that tune. It is followed by an unnamed reel, the Moving Bog, and The Cliffs of Something or Other.

Does anyone know the name of Oisin's fiddle solo, on the solo set? It's awesome.

amazon.ca or amazon.com has the Danu DVD - One night stand - there are lots of extras on it as well - well worth the money

Sorry Pocopiper but "Reel Gan Ainm" means "Reel without a name". :-) Look in the tunes section of this site and you will find 75 tunes (at time of writing) labelled "Gan Ainm" although many of these will have names. It is just the poster does not know them.
