Tony MacMahon plays a set of jigs

With one of the largest bodhrans in history at the 1973 Fleadh Cheoil in Lios Tuaitheal, Có Cíarraí, Ireland

Great piece of playing, loved the guy on the home made Bodrhan.

Stevie Mac of Doolin in the 1970s had a monster of a bodhran as well with strings of old pennies in gaps in the rim to give a tamborine effect :-)

You could imagine our distant ancestors sitting around a fire in some cave in the Burren, their bellies full with the meat of a goat they had killed. All that was left was the hide and some wood for the fire. Fooling around they came up with a bodhran like that and partied into the night with the pure sound echoing through the cave and reverberating in their chests.

king sized bodhran...home made, i`d say. sounded well, as accompaniment, to the great tony.

Willie Finn looks like he ripped the belly from a dead cow & wrapped it around an old car tyre. Wherever it came from he’s getting a good sound from it. This was a fledh cheoil either in Ennis in 75 or listowel in 73, not sure which one
