id for song or band

I was listening to a song in the store the other day that was a very good Irish sond. It sounded traditional until the uilleann pipes came on. They were very fast and good, and then it had an electric guitar in it. Has anybody heard anything like that?

They only play that song in that particular store.

It's actually a rock song with "Keltick" influences.

Not the other way around. ;0)

Oh yeah... that's one of my very favorite songs.

My favorite part is that one part in the middle. You know, that one part that's really good? Yeah, that's my favorite part.

I recently read that John Paul Jones sat around all day playing banjo before the sold out O2 Led Zep show.

Says playing banjo relaxes him.

True

one I was thinking of.
