Music of Ireland

Suppose not too much audience for thei musician.
Well spotted and taken Herb.

As it was Jaap, a coach full of German tourist had just pulled in and so he was getting into the spirit here. Thanks for another visit.

All the Best, Herb

Wonderful shot, I can hear the music from here ;-))

Good stuff it was too John.

All the Best, Herb

Oh isn't this awesome! I would have loved to hear him play. What a cool experience that must have been, and in such a pretty place too.

Thanks for your comment on my HFF picture, I enjoyed reading about your aversion to commercials of all kinds too...yes, you gotta love BBC!! I certainly do.

Happy holidays to you and your family!

Hi Janet, his playing was in reality, a bit questionable as he tapped the time on the tin tray at his feet. (I play one of these myself but mine is a three row). We had a nice conversation as he waited for the bus load of punters to unload. He admitted that he made very little money but for me, well worth a small donation. This was a wonderful spot that I have yet to find in this Ipernity map.Mapped now. My pleasure to share some small thoughts on a shared subject with you in your pages.

Wishing you and yours A Very Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year, Herb

A great image and a wonderful backdrop, it looks like he intended to get some money out of you one way or another !! is that St. Brigid ?

He was trying his best Peter as said in my comment to Janet (above). I am afraid that the statue does not look like St Brigit but the stature of 'Our Lady' which adorns Ireland everywhere. Not that next to the squeeze box player is a selection of St Brigit's crosses for sale (in green) which are "placed in our homes to keep all inside safe.”

All the Best, Herb

A lovely image, I just listened to "The Irish Rovers" on a link, this fits well too.

Thanks George. Yes The Irish Rovers fit nicely but there music contains fiddle etc so I have included an appropriate link here. (in the description).

All The Best mate, Herb

Hi Herb super Image love to hear folk music I was in a folk club.
All the best. TOZ. ⭐

Hi Toz, very happy that you like this one too and my above comments to Tiabunna and Janet apply to you too. I too love folk music and used to go regularly to sessions. My wife Eileen was really into it as she sometime sang. As you may already know -I play the accordeon myself -mostly a 64 Bass piano but I also have a 'Hohner Trichord' 3 row like this (almost). Unfortunately, I am not very good though. I might have know from the that, that you were into folk or even more likely into Country music. Many thanks for the gold star.

Have a Great Christmas my friend and happy New Years shooting for you, Herb

Would love to hear what he is playing !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ah Marie-Claire -the music and dance was very similar to the on the new posted link, above. Glad you enjoyed this scene and maybe enjoy the music too.

Seasonal Greetings to you and your family, Herb

Great shot, Herb. I love Irish music.

Thanks Daniela -hope you found the link in the description box above then. Glad you enjoyed this. (some of the above comments should interest you too.)

Seasonal Greetings to you and your family, Herbert
