Band to Join, Other, Accordion.ABOUT
Piano Accordion and Tin whistle (though I don't do much Irish music these days).
Competent with 7, 11, 13, 25 beats per bar or any mix of such - Rite of Spring may be a bit challenging, but otherwise...
Needs sheet music - can't play by ear!
Just had an offer of doing alternative 80's covers songs and that really appealed, but fell through to their health complications - but sounded good - The Cure, Tom Waits, The Pixies - would have been a lot of fun
