Welcome to Canada guys!!! Have fun in Goderich. Wish I could be there to play a few tunes with you both. Hup …eh ;)

Great tune Shannon, was going to ask that you cover it when I wet back and found you already had!! 🫣😂 Thank you. 🙏🏻

I’m partial to the Bothy Band recording.

Rakish Paddy is such a classic that everyone should learn. Thanks for explaining the bit about C naturals and C sharps as it does change the character of the melody. I would add that, because it is easy, that there are many opportunities to add ornaments and rolls in the B part. There is much debate over what is the 'core' or basic melody. This version is really something one can 'build on'.

Great tune and beautifully played!

Awesome 😀👍💚

Thank you for that nice version of Maids of Selma. I have been working on that over the last year (Roanoke VA session).

Love the songs and love the "sneak" appearance.

Lovely :)

Matt- Thanks for your insight and generous spirit in making and posting these. I will have many more questions, but I'll start with an obvious one for a complete beginner. Those small spacers below the bridge on your strings: what is their purpose? I assume it's to deaden sound below the bridge? Are they available commercially, or is that something you've rigged on your own?

Have you noticed that there is someone creeping in the background at 0:50?! 😂

Love that big interval leap at :04. You always make it so interesting! Thanks for another inspiring, and motivational tune.

Great video, so timely too because I plan to play this with a friend at our local session tonight. We made a little story of tunes- Maid on the Green, Will You Come Home With Me and Haste to the Wedding. Also I love seeing your special guest star in this video😂

Really appreciate and value these videos and your tune of the month! I've been playing for 5 years and since finding your videos last month I think I've doubled my tune bank! Love your emphasis on breathing technique and rhythmic clarity! Definitely the best tutorial videos online! Thank you 🪕🎻

Love it all great stuff ❤

What kind of flute is this?? Beautiful timbre!

Great thanks 🌟😀👍

Sounds Fantastic 💈🎖️🌟😀👍🏆💯

Hup!! I love this tune so much, but have yet to learn it. I’d love to see it the Tune of the Month series, wink wink, nudge nudge 😄

I love Irish music. It's so uplifting. (It's who I am!)

Always such a pleasure. I’m so impressed with your ability to remember allllll these tunes.

What tune is that playing in the background in the introduction?

Fantástico vídeo señor, muchas gracias!

Nice.

Absolutely fantastic. Well done!!

This is a beautiful set . Just learned it ❤

Hey! My grandmother's name is Nora. I'm gonna learn this nice tune as a tribute to her. (I seem to be online as you guys post these tunes, great timing. And a great shirt Matt. ) Thanks!

I love it, really like the high parts! my favs! and the arrangement between frames :)

Nice! I agree about breaking down a multi-part tune, it was nice to have it called out 👍🏻

I've been playing my mandolin on steroids since dinosaurs roamed the earth, but usual mandolin tuning. I enjoyed this introduction to the GDAD tuning. Years ago, we played in Chicago with Mike Ryan, who used that tuning. And I really loved how he backed up what Margaret and I were singing/playing. Since I usually play guitar in DADGAD, this tuning would not be too hard to figure out. Anyway, glad to have stumbled on to this video. Hope all is well with you all.

I first heard this tune in 1978 played by the BB. What an incredible piece.

Just pulled this out of the memory archive recently. Thanks for breaking it down for a memory rephrase!

Worked on it by following the video yesterday and today…..I’m killing it! LOL…..thanks to your tutorial! Bravo kids

EXCELLENT 👌 THANK YOU SO MUCH🎼🎵🎶🏆

I always look forward to learning a new tune with you guys. You two are a MAJOR part of my Trad Music journey! :)

One of my fav. What do you like to play this with ? I like it with drowsy Maggie right after 😊. But I like switching up my sets . I like this concept of video to learn a new tune , even if someone already knows it , it’s good to get a new inspiration on ornaments or variation . Love the accompanying guitar . ❤ 😊

thanks for lovely tune!!! sorry to be so picky but I have to set the harp levers -- not E minor? I saw a C# in there. So E Dorian?

Thanks! ✌️🎻🙂😎

Another Gawjus minor reel . Thank you ❤

Excellent additions to the video. Good camera angle for the guitarists' left hand. Love the 'session speed' version for inspiration. And a great tune anyway, lots of opportunity for variation on this one.

Thanks- you do a fantastic presentation of tunes and model learning by ear - love the variations 7:51

Maith sibh ❤👍🏻👍🏻

I love it. Very approachable. I'd love to know what "St. Pat's Style" implies.🍀

Thank you for the great energy and the great VGS series! I recently remembered you two's performance of Hills of Coore and I'm still inspired by it. All the best ❤

Here u are! For some reason theres also a June 20 video, waiting for people to show up…?🤔🙃

Wow the breakdown of tunes to right is awesome!!❤

Beautiful! Thanks soooo much!
