Wow, I haven't been here in a loooooong time.

Check this site out, cutie. There is a wealth of information here and the people rock.

Check the traditional Irish music forum, it's great. I was looking for a specific tune and I just asked there and someone posted me a link with it annotated a variety of ways.

Also, the clips and snips forum is great.

ALSO, there are SO MANY fantastic musicians there and boy, do they know their traditional Irish music stuff! And they've very very friendly even to newbies with simple questions. I would go there and post this same question. You will not be disappointed.
