So who are you trying to impress, and how?

That is surprisingly often the motive for choosing and learning a tune.

Deadly tunes?

He's Almost Dead

Jig Of The Living Dead
http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/7791

The Lamentation Of The Dead Perch
http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/8648

I've always liked "I Buried My Wife And Danced On Her Grave"
http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/383

and "Drag Her Round The Road"
http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/1148
(sounds quite deadly to me)

Personally, a deadly cool tune would have to be:

Catharsis

Waves of Rush
http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/2531

The Road to Errogie (In A, not G as posted)
http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/5270

But of course that may not be the sort of tunes you are looking for Care to clarify a wee bit?

There tons of really cool tunes. Some are better on one instrument than another. What do you play, and what's your experience level with Irish music?

Personally, I think all the old favorites are great. I'm working on Wheels of the World, Cliffs of Moher, and a few others right now. What is cool to one person is lame to another.

Roisin's not after a 'really cool' tune, alex, she's after a deadly cool tune. There's a world of difference! Geez!
Farewell to Erin people usually find fairly deadly. Fairly.

Re: Im looking for a deadly cool tune??????

It'd be better probably to have a slightly less deadly tune before it, leading to a deadly key change to Farewell to Erin.

Agree with nicholas. It is often the motive for learning a tune.
I used to work with a fiddle player that enlightened me on the importance of ego in the presentation of music. It was a profound moment during a conversation on the way home in a car. It is an idea to be embraced. Deadly cool tune? Micho
Russell's Mason's Apron.

I've just been introduced to The Shaskeen, it's my favourite this week. Sounds great on the banjo - even with me playin it.

Hey, firstly, the main reason for someone wanting to learn a deadly cool tune is because, um, it's deadly cool.
Secondly, what's wrong with trying to impress someone?? If there is a certain someone you want to impress, learning a deadly cool tune is a pretty good way of going about it, I think!

Anyway, you might want to try this tune: http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/885 (hee hee)
Or even this one: http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/7588 (muahahaha)

Have fun!
