[@TheLordbanjo]

We will never see this standard of documentary on RTE again.

[@stuartmcdonald2974]

All three are gone now. Thank you Barney, Tony and Micho

[@theliamofella]

McMahon is such a romantic, a personality trait of musicians, poets and artists, and Barney is a kind of his own, god bless Barney, a kind man and great musician

[@MultiHawkeye101]

BRING BACK THE OLD TRADITIONS OR IRELAND!!!!

[@seandwyer1823]

Notice how Tony played quietly at times to allow the Banjo to come through? The hall-mark of a master, no need to impress and drown other players out, but to blend with them, drawing in and out of the tune but even then, still quietly in the background. A master of slow airs too, learning the techniques from Seamus Ennis the piper.

[@GraeneyMac]

Not easy to hold a crowd with a slow air on the accordion. Lovely.

[@williefinn4932]

tony and barney were a great pair....the seriousness of mcmahon and the humour of mckenna....and great music.

[@HEADSUPBERKELEY]

This is so great to see Micho and Barney and Tony having so much fun while serving a great cause God Bless them and keep them safe and May The Sod Rest Lightly Over them dose bright spirits.
