In a recent thread, I pointed out that at one of our sessions up here, we often have at least one Dog in the Bar during our session & in fact, one Fiddler actually used to bring along his own dog every week. It was never any bother & just sat quietly by his side all night .... that is, until the barman brought in the Cheese & Ham sandwiches!
Any way, GaryAMartin replied to that post, saying that they had had a few problems with Dogs at one of their sessions, which made me wonder, just how many folks see animals at their sessions & if so, do any of them cause any problems.
I'm sure we'd be interested to hear all about barking Dogs, Screaming Monkeys, Midges, Mosquitos, Singing Parrots, Barmaids & their Pythons or whatever.
Don't dogs have hearing which is way more acute than that of humans? I've always wondered if what is music to our ears might be painful for the poor oul dogs that get dragged to sessions (especially horrible shrill tinwhistles like mine ).
I believe that Eamon Maguire made a bodhran out of his dog after it died. Dogs don't have pores, so maybe their skins are better for drum heads than those of goats? I'm sure somebody will refute or confirm the story.
m.d.
I'm a big fan of animals running around... the most enjoyable session I've ever played at was in a sheepdog farmers house... turf fire in the corner, hot whiskeys on the go, a load of dogs running around your feet, excited but not barking, tunes belting out, the craic was absolute 90. I am pro animals.
emmdee, the only instruments our dogs don't really like are our Bombards & high notes on the Concertina .... with all the others, they just look bored!
I knew a bloke up in Orkney whose Jack Russell would strum a guitar if it was held in front of him. There was also a dog on Graemsay who was one of those howlers when he heard a tune. I tried to persuade the two mutts to form a duo, but they would have none of it. Once bitten.....
I am not aware that my fellow-sessioners have made efforts to put me to sleep, although their tunes can sometimes send me to sleep.
This proves that the sessions I go to are animal sanctuaries.
Some fellow-sessioners are immired in dogs, cats and horses, but these animals have so far not appeared in sessions.
I assume this is because they have refused point-blank to come, on the grounds that the conditions are Dickensian and atrocious and contravene all accepted standards of hygiene and welfare.
One of the musicians at our local sessions used to have a cat who loved the sound of the tinwhistle. If this woman played her tinwhistle, her cat would appear and purr and rub its head against this musician's ankles. Unfortunately, since cats don't live as long as human beings, this cat died some years ago.
However, our Golden Retriever doesn't seem to like music at all. This may have something to do with the person who commented that dogs have hearing which is keener and more acute than ours. On the other hand, though, when I play my acoustic bass fiddle for our dog, he doesn't like it either. He tries to get away from me and the instrument.
@ Mix O'Lydian ... Aye, that happened in a Pub here, in Ballycastle, I think it was last year, when a traveller was refused service, so he left the bar & came straight back in with his horse. Not our session pub though ... thankfully!
@ fauxcelt ... I've no doubt the problem with the Bass Fiddle won't be the sound, but rather those vibrations that creep across the floor from those big beasties!
Normally Fleetwood just curls up in his basket and sleeps, occasionally emerging when someone offers food. But I was once at a bluegrass session with Fleetwood in his basket on a head-high ledge above me. I think he had a nightmare, because he suddenly shot into the air like a startled partridge, crashed down onto the table below sending glasses flying, dashed across the room and curled up growling under a stool at the bar. He's never done that before or since.
On that note, it's really too bad my horse doesn't have opposable thumbs and can't learn an instrument. You see, when we're out on a trail ride with another horse and the other horse starts misbehaving, mine gets very grumpy and threatens to bite or kick it until it shapes up. This sort of thing could do wonders for major session etiquette fails -- noodlers, out of time bodhrans, tune pouncers, speed changers, etc.
@ Mix O'Lydian ... Well, he made a lot of fuss about being refused a drink because he was a traveller, but the fact is, he was actually refused, because he was absolutely blutered!
Of course, the fact that he was a traveller is important to the story, because who else would be likely to have a Horse, waiting outside for them.
@ yhaalhouse ... you'll certainly see some rare lookin' boys hanging around Ballycastle, but sadly the Lone Ranger and Roy Rogers haven't shown up ... yet!
But seriously, am I just getting too long in the tooth now, or are there really just not the same number of real characters around, these days?
There are parts of The Tradition where I have no wish to go.
These include the nightmare experiences of those who have an unfortunate relationship with alcohol, which have probably laced history since the first prehistoric people discovered the joys of fermented fruit.
I allude to the certainty of sufferers that their brains are being eaten by black vultures with womens' breasts and single eyes like red-hot blow-lamps even as they are trying to scramble a set together and make an impression on an audience that looks like an infinitely replicated Pogues album cover in 3D.
Dammit, guys! More than a few of us were grooving on the recounting of the session with all the sheepdogs tearing around. (were they border colies?) Could we go back to that, or something like it, please. Any narative that features border collies in it, really...
Our Monday night session in deepest Cornwall usually has several dogs lay about under chairs or wherever with rarely any problems, main one would be someone treading on a tail, but by far the best incident was a sunday afternoon session at another pub that housed a parrot. The session was in full swing when a chap walked in and asked could he play his new button box he'd learned new tunes so we made him welcome and sat quietly while he faffed about getting settled then attempted to play several tunes but not quite well and never finishing .. after one of his attempts for some reason a hush decended on the room and the parrot piped up loud enough for whole pub to hear .... Ya tossa !!
Mike, that reminds me that a fellow bird man used to have a talking Magpie, that'd been hand reared. Any time we played a session at his house, if there was a lull in the music, the Magpie would often break the silence with his favourite phrase:
.. "Do You want a Banana?"
Best talking bird I ever heard was Cocky, a swearing Greater Sulpher Crested Cockatoo, that had been owned by a sailor, before being donated to Edinburgh Zoo. I worked there for a while & it used to crease me up, when he would scream F _ _ _ O _ _! at the top of his voice, usually when a school party was in the Bird Garden.
Bit like this Cockatoo, whose favourite phrase is: "Ya fu#ken wan£er"
Well I wouldn't be knowing which pub houses Mike T's session in deepest Cornwall, but a couple of years back I went to one at the ******'s ***s in Z***** and the place was overrun by very badly-behaved dogs all evening, charging round the tables chasing each other, tripping up musicians returning to their tables with drinks and, on one occasion, knocking a mandolin on to the floor. As ever when dogs are acting in this antisocial manner, their brainless owners thought the whole thing was a big hoot. To cap it all, at 11.45 some of the pub staff and a few regulars proceeded to light up in the bar, regardless of the fact that there were still other customers in there. Yikes.
Well Steve, like you say, the Dogs weren't to blame in that situation, just their idiot owners.
Which reminds me, is Cornwall the county in England that other folks always joke about folks there having 12 fingers & webbed feet? ...... or is that Norfolk?

It can make good use of the bodhran when it's thirsty and you can feed it with bones when their owner is at the bar.

Do you think he'd do that with any of his relative's skins, if they'd left their body to science?
Makes me wonder what other bits of animals you might find at a session.
