Jag tänkte väl det.
Det finns bara ett Dave Williams-set i Sverige.
Vi brukar träffas lite då och då.

I just asked Steampacket if he is a person I use to meet at sessions now and then.

Naah. Gave up the white wine spritzers fer lent.
I'm more of a Miles Davis and whiskey man myself.
I'd love to hear Sean McKiernan, but I've been straining my poor neck enough as it is...

Sean really is something...quite the style of piping thar. That tune he's playing reminds me of the hornpipe that M. Malloy and T. Peoples use to play, called Mulqueeney's...all filled in with triplets everywhere.

Great bit of film, there! If you've got a dial-up connection it's best to go off and build a birdcage or something while the file downloads.
The tune he plays is called the Beauty Spot, or Colonel Taylor's, or the Tailor's Thimble.
