Get it from Henrik Norbeck's. I have conversion issues with session.org and I'm not sure why. Time after time, Norbeck's is very reliable. But then, I never use sheet music. Yeah, Norbeck's is a goldmine for getting sheet music of Irish tunes...and scandinavian tunes too! Also good is the archive o...

We just saw Lunasa last Friday night in Tarpon Springs (great show!!!), and so of course their Punch set from the Kinnittey Sessions has inspired me to take on Trip to Windsor and Punch in the Dark.

I'm also working on The Handsome Maidens

...but I hope that in the long run, regardless of the next 4 years, we'll behave more wisely. :) Behave more "Wisley"? I'll bet Dale would agree :) Nice photos, everyone. Actually, by posting some nice sunset photos, I was kinda saying hey everyone, lets get through election day and still...

Well, its only a few days before election day, and I'm hoping to {insert Name of Diety of Choice} that my Florida absentee ballot hasnt been shredded or counted thrice by now. :) Anyway, I was lucky enough to have my camera when these lovely events were happening: Sunrise in Denver, ...

There are so many variables that can cause a crap fit - without knowing that all of these have been addressed and worked through there's no way to know if it's really YOU having the hard time, or if you just got stuck with a poor fit and no follow up care to speak of. Either way, before you bag it ...

The session at the Field that I attended was great fun...well worth the extra day I spent in San Diego so I could work it into my travel schedule. Very nice people, and a really nice mix of instruments.

Have a great time!

Uh...nothing personal, but I hate you. :) Sokay, I get that a lot :D :D :D My first glasses, which I remember keenly as one does all traumatic events, were pale blue, in that awful, awful harlequin style (it was what they had, back then). Thus began my journey toward my destiny--geekdom. I learned ...

I assume there's a reason you're not trying the bifocal contact lenses. I opted to give them a miss since the way my doc described how they worked, I decided they would make my brain hurt. :lol: [/i] Actually, bifocal/multifocal contacts work great (especially the ones I make!! :D :D ) and there is...

Dazed Lives! Dude, so what's the scoop: You make contacts but wear glases? :o (You still in one piece after all the recent storms? Guess I split Florida at about the right time....)

OK, I guess it happens to some of us eventually.....now its my turn. I've been wearing my first pair of bifocal spectacles for several hours now, and my God what a dizzying experience this is. I guess you get used to it, but I think I'm going to try some progressive lenses next. Maybe its only fair....

Hi Everyone! My girlfriend (hopefully fiancee soon :D ) has family in Ennis (sp?) which is somewhat near Miltown Malbay, so we're thinking about coordinating a trip "home" and possibly doing Willie Week.... However, I'm hearing rumors that the character of Willie Week has been changing ove...
