My name is Steve D.and I live in Brisbane. I like Irish reels above all else. Yup, you can have yer waltzes, yer slip jigs,
Breton gizmos, Romanian Mazurkas, Lichtenstein Polkas,
just give me reels. There great to play on guitar .
I've been off this site for a while and am still amazed that the 'self obsessed plonker index'" is still running at about 50% even in my absence .
I play rhythm on a Joe Gallacher guitar which I've owned for about 10 years. 'Tis loud and gritty. Play tunes on a Spanish with a Fattone pick. Also play Les Dorahy Mandolin
and Baritone guitar . Play the upright bass and electric basses
as well .
I love playing with musicians where there is spontanaety and a lot of improvisation. I love it when you don't have to rehearse. Where someone in the band calls a song or a tune that everyones heard but no ones played before and it just works ,warts and all, thats great fun and everyone enjoys it.
