I really love your vides an I a m learning a lot. But one thing, you are very hard to understand because the voice is too quiet - especially for a non native speaker :) Maybe you have access to a microphone or something to improve the sound quality?
No need- that's the beauty (and in some instances curse!) of DADGAD tuning, that the open strings harmonise with the popular keys meaning you can use very sparse fingerings and still sound good.
@@folkfriend In order not to confuse myself. Could I just play the full chords non DADGAD . I like to play and sing ballads and trying to strum along at a session. Like simple chords A, C, D, G mainly
@@sensibleperson8208 yes absolutely! If you visit folkfriend.co.uk and have a look on the videos page I have another series which shows you how to pick chords for accompaniment in standard tuning.
I think this is bad advice. Irish trad tunes have quite distinct progressions that you need to sound out before you rock up at a session and ruin everyones evening by banging out this same I-Iv-V pattern. Just sayin'...
Try the Bm (starting on the third and seventh bar at the A section) and Em (starting on the third and seventh bar at the B section).
I'm amazed apparently I didn't know that about the 5 chord on 7 ... thank you ... sounds much more Irish now ...

Hi . Why not use full cords as in more fingers

How can your family save you from a cult tho if your family is the reason you joined the cult in the first place?
