Playing or Personal Notes:

(Note from ?Hannie?); In Maid Behind the Bar, the 3 'G' chords that are at the BEGINNING of bars 3, 7, and 15, (that Wayne said didn't sound right), were B minor chords, which can also be played as either 'G' or 'D' chords.

History

The version that we have been playing (as of Oct 2006) was derived from that presented by the American band "Wild Dismay". This was their arrangement of a tune they heard from another Ohio Celtic band called "Bog Carrot". We have our own (slightly different) arrangement.
