Kilts and guitars

I pull my shirt out over the buckle, and move the sporran aside.

Or take them off.

I'd rather not scratch the back of my Candy Apple Setzer Hot Rod Special.

Thank you, and my best ebay purchase. Brand new, in box, in plastic, with case, for 1/3 retail. I'd been dreaming about this guitar since the first version came out. Got it last Christmas and have played it every day but two or three. That, with my Traynor wr20, is the set up I've been trying to get forever.

Where are you playing?

Are acoustic guitars welcome here?

Here, I'm entertaining at the historical "Stamford-on-the-Green a couple of years ago. That guitar in my Sigma DR41 with Martin slimline pickup. My badger sporran is at my left side, and is barely visible in this shot.

I dont know but I love em'. What kind of music you play. I just learned a couple of Scottish folk songs and I am loving modernizing them. Yeah, sacrelige I know.

Very cool! I have played various styles for a long time and just got together with a co-worker and a friend of hers, both 'celtic fiddlers' - to jam. We found that we were off and running immediately, and plan to continue. Anyone in the DC area who wants a wee spot of fine music, give me a shout!

We think we'll go by the very irreverent name of "PunkA** McGee," in tribute to a certain term of affection we all have for each other.

got any good tabs for some good traditional Celtic songs? I am having trouble finding decent tabs or arrangements for the older folk songs!

Seamus used to be lead singer for a Celtic Punk band called Shillelagh Law. He's not active here now, but if you send me a PM I'll put you in touch with him. They sang traditional songs as well as some of their own.
