Lio by Mark Tatulli
Daily Inspiration:
"Music is the language of the spirit. It opens the secret of life bringing peace, abolishing strife."
- Kahlil Gibran
As with anything else, played well & the right song, bagpipes & accordion sound great melodically. Bass drum & triangle are of course, percussive & played with restraint & good timing, also add to a musical piece. No idea of Ishy’s virtuosity or lack thereof. Yours on wind-bag,Juke
Lio’s expression suggests that Ishy may not be quite the virtuoso of his aspirations, but if he ever gets it all right, he’ll be a GREAT one-squid band!
Well, early in the mornin’ I’m a-givin’ you a warnin’Don’t you step on my blue suede shoes.Hey diddle diddle, I am playin’ my fiddle,Ain’t got nothin’ to lose.Roll Over Beethoven and tell Tschaikowsky the news.
The Irish music taste Is constantly eroding This explains why bagpipes Sound like cats exploding(Write not to me an angry letter: I’m one half Irish, one half Setter)

Bagpipes, accordian, bass drum and triangle — Ishy is talented. Of course the racket will be heard in the next county.

Bagpipes are one of the more difficult instruments to master, mostly cuz’ you first have to be a “blow-hard” to even get started.

Ishy probably sounds better than Madonna’s half time show.
