Everyone saying the Phanatic, but it's clearly the Twins' TC Bear: a) completely flat, lifeless look, just dead dumb eyes stuffed into a generic bear costume, terrifying; b) is a bear and therefore faster than you; c) carries a bodhran that will explode your eardrums out of your skull at 50 paces
what baseball mascot do you think would be the worst to have chasing you through the woods and what kind of weapon do you imagine them to be using

My friend Felix brought this song to our sessions while he was in Cambridge for a summer internship, and I was the first of us to get the words to it, so now that he's left this one's mine to lead (still need a bit more practice playing bodhrán and singing at the same time tho). EXTREMELY catchy.

Rito Dyl definitely a bard, plays the bodhran, and sings.
Shrink enchanted music, diminishing to the drum beat and melodic chirps, and the goober gets far too lost in his music to notice others shrinking around him.
Will get a bird butt bashing your face, thinking he's giving you a hip bump.

It's a duet with my folk singing friend. Guitar accompaniment, with guitar body taps instead of bodhran.

I’ve had such a selfish weekend. Halfway downstairs yesterday morning and I stopped off briefly in my studio room…. Emerging 4 hours later then going back for the remainder of the day. I’ve been dicking around in there for most of today as well and it’s been really nice.

Always makes me a bit nervous playing bodhrán at a session where there's another, more experienced bodhrán player also present, but today it paid off: not only did he compliment my playing repeatedly but also invited me to come to an inter/advanced workshop next year. :)

Stuck in with covid, thought I would attempt some illustrations for the PhD, at least it would pass the time
Given I haven’t done any art in 30years I’m quite pleased with this.

We had another in our ongoing series of weekly vigils for Gaza yesterday -- every Sunday from noon to 2 at 12th and Hawthorne in Portland, Oregon. I was honored to have the brilliant Franco join me on the bodhran.

Canterbury was full of morris dancers today (hop hoodening at the cathedral) and it was lovely and wholesome and not a single flag anywhere that I saw (I was at work but the atmosphere during my lunch break was very un-flaggy)
