#3 thought I put a description with the video, here it is anyway:
Credit to Daoiri Farrell
"The three of us came into the airport and the flight was delayed by nearly two hours. We could tell that everyone was a little bit unhappy about this and Geoff (the banjo player in the video) suggested that we play a bit of a music session. He played a set of traditional irish dance tunes on the banjo and I (Daoiri Farrell) backed him on the Bouzouki. Robbie Walsh (Bodhran Player) then joined us and we had the attention of everyone in the room immediatly. I then proceeded to sing a song. I picked one that I thought everyone would know, The Galway Girl. It went down really well. By this stage my dad had the Canon out and here is the video footage he took. His name is Desmond Farrell and his hobby is photography."

Now that was just good fun!! Folk musicians like these guys just bring out the best in people.
I had no idea that the bouzouki was such a popular instrument with Irish folk musicians.
And the banjo is another nice touch. The sound is so distinctive. It is kind of amazing that so many cultures have picked up and now use this instrument in their folk music given that it comes from, and allow me to quote a famous leader, peoples from ‘shithole’ countries. (It is an African instrument)

#6 Famous leaders have been quoted throughout history, some expressing words of wisdom, others making fools of themselves expressing words that belong in the privacy of their own four walls.
