Music

I play guitar, a little mandolin, and a few other things. And sing - mostly to the critters. And write lyrics. I like just about everything, especially folk and acoustic blues. It's the rare day that I'm not at least listening to music. Michael plays and teaches traditional Irish music. We go to music festivals, concerts, and local sessions - and have Irish sessions at home whenever we can.

"Yeah. If you're gonna suck, at least kick ass!"
Beavis and Butthead, on lame bands
