There is also a 'set dance' related to this family, but will I remember it in time, or find it, or will someone else? ~ Slainte? ~ Nox? ~ ???

"The Road to Lurgan" / "An Botar Go Lurraga" ~ in the meantime, another relative

~ not quite as I've known it, but another family member? Anyway, this seems to have been what was knocking around in my noggin when I mentioned 'set dance'...

A & B parts, the 5th bar:

I recognise this tune but I think with a different title. cannot remember what it was called or where I got it from but I would agree with playing F natural in bar 5 'A' music but with F natural in bar 4 'B' music. F# in bar 5 brings the tune back into the major for the last 4 bars.
I will have to go searching.

Three Sea Captains
Reminds me of the set dance called "The Three Sea Captains". Is that the one you were thinking of ceolochan? Here's the link to the tune:

It's posted as a jig, but the poster admits it's really a set dance.

"The Three Sea Captains" ~ et voila!
Thanks Jason, that's the one, not the Hag/Maid, I couldn't shake it that there was a set dance this reminded me of, also from way back when, actually an old favourite. Thanks for taking me there, much appreciated...

Just so happened that I learned 3 Sea Captains recently. Might be the only set dance that I can currently play off the top of my head. So yeah, always glad to help.
