    Welcome to the Traditional Forum!

    Feel free to discuss all that is traditional in the music world be it Trad, Folk or Acoustic.

    Normal Boards.ie rules apply. A full list is available here.


    Take the time to look for any sheet music/lyrics/cds or anything else you might want online (Google.com is a good place to start) before you start a thread asking about them. Posting without doing so will result in your thread being closed, and possibly a warning.



    Teachers / Lessons
    If you have lessons on offer please post here and do not start your own thread. Doing so will result in the thread being locked and a possible warning.


    NO Illegal Warez/MP3s
    Any discussion on the illegal download of copyrighted material is out of the question. Any links to illegal mp3s, or the suggestion of P2P file sharing programs will be deleted and the user who posted banned.

    Posting Personal Details
    It's come to my attention that people occasionally want to get in contact with each other to organise sessions or other meetings for exchange of music etc. This is welcomed in the forum, however I recommend you Do not publish personal details - your phone number and/or your address on this forum. I have no way of ensuring your personal details aren't abused if they're presented in a public forum. Additionally, I've no way of ensuring some of the less savoury users aren't posting someone else's personal details, masquerading as their own.

    Please use the private message function, which is useful for swapping such bits and pieces.

    No spam or flaming!
    This means no personal insults or intentionally offensive material.

    Musicians seeking other musicians - for bands / jamming etc, please include the following in your post / reply
    • location
    • influences
    • style of play
    • what kind of musician you are OR are looking for

    Any links you may have to samples of your music when doing so please bear in mind the MP3 rule below
    * recording / recording methods
    * song writing (structure, methods etc)
    * the independant music industry


    In the wrong forum?

    Thread titles/topics such as:
    * my bands gig in TBMC this week, next week or any other week
    * such and suchs new album
    * worlds best fiddle player
    Belong in the music, pimp my band, gigs/events forums and will be either moved there or deleted.

    Other Forum Rules

    * PROMOTERS if your advertising for bands please adhere to boards.ie rules. If you do not you will be banned.
    * NO MUSIC EQUIPMENT FOR SALE POSTS do it once you'll be warned, twice and yer banned. There is www.adverts.ie for that.
    * NO COMMERCIAL ADVERTS of any kind, they'll be deleted post haste and a banning wont be far behind either
    * PLEASE DON'T ask for links to tunes or sheet music unless you REALLY need them, remember Google is your best friend.


    Have fun!
