    I just finished the Irish trad guitar classes in Waltons.

    I would like to meet with some people to practice jigs, slip jigs, hornpipes and watlz.

    My two favouite songs are ride on and rocky road to dublin.

    I would even meet with a beginer bodhran player just to push ourselves to improve.

    I am based in Dublin.

    Hi,

    I play more folk songs and I sing. I'm in a folk band based in swords. I might hold you up as I don't really play along to tunes, I suppose I never really learned that end of it, however I really want to learn to accompany jigs etc. would it be worth it for you for us to still meet up?

    Regards keith

    What folk songs do you play? Like Irish sing along songs?

    I am only a beginer guitar player. I only just learned wild rover today.
