Candidquality Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Thought a few of you could appreciate this. Heard a sound and had to take a look at the video to be sure. Love that triangle Finnish Bluegrass band Steve'n Seagulls playing "AC/DC - Thunderstruck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 It's a good one, I have Steve'N'Seagulls in my music bookmarks. I only listen once in a while but they're entertaining and very listenable. I have the "Oh Brother Where Art Though" soundtrack saved too. Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irondragon Forge ClayWorks Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Loved it especially the ringing of the anvil. I can't control the wind, all I can do is adjust my sails. ~ Semper Paratus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott NC Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 I like it. It's a bit more edgy than the NC bluegrass I've been exposed to though, since I moved here. I went to a "blue grass" barn dance recently and it was toe tapping, get up and dance stuff. They served some bad food though. I have a video of it and thought of making a utube clip but don't want to hijack anymore threads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 It's hard to beat live music and live bluegrass is almost impossible to sit still for. You have video of bad food? Uh, thank you for not hijacking the thread or would that be up chucking it? Sorry I couldn't help it. Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irondragon Forge ClayWorks Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 A long time ago, Debi and I went on vacation to WV and stayed at some old friends home. We attended a "concert" in Shepherdstown and I've got to say those folks really know how to play Blue Grass and Old Time music. I really loved the Cat Gut and Horse Hair band...wow. Of course we did all the Civil War battlefields and Harpers Ferry Armory.

Frosty Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 It's not old timey but I'm a major fan of, "The Gael." There are lots of good renditions and few bad ones. It was adapted for the movie and was famous beforehand. Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George N. M. Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 I agree, Jerry. I like the large, orchestral versions. It is a big piece of music and deserves a big treatment. That said, there is much to be said for the bagpipe version. G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 I agree but there's a version with 200 pipers and maybe 15 or more Bodhran drums that really gets the blood pumping. There's a native American group, "Indiogene " I think that plays it on flutes and drums though there may be more. The video is shot with a drone circling and lots of fast cuts. It's like they don't want you to get a good look. A full philharmonic orchestra version though is something to behold (behear?) Maybe someday I'll get to listen to it in a proper music hall live. I LOVE live music, no recording is even close. Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott NC Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 (edited) Here's a another place we visited. Clyde owned a antique and pottery store and in the back was a stage for the players. He has passed away, since. He was a kind man and spent some time talking to Mom about Nebraska. I took a little video while we were there of them warming up. A LOT of famous musicians played there over the years. They had good food.... Edited July 1, 2023 by Scott NC Remove Link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
