⭐ Extended Notes
This set from the Pittsburgh Renaissance Festival was recorded as a backup for Deaglán’s solo performance at TudorCon. Since the solo set during TudorCon will be unique to the evening, we offered this full-band show as an alternative version—spotlighting some of our most historically referenced pieces.
1) Mary’s Dream – Laridé (Pipe Tune)
A pairing of a traditional Scottish song (“Mary’s Dream”) with a Breton laridé pipe tune to open the set in classic Reelin’ Rogues fashion.
2) Black and Tans – Rosc Catha na Mumhain – Óró Sé do ’bheatha ’bhaile
This medley represents the Irish tradition of reusing melodies across centuries.
“Black and Tans” and “Rosc Catha na Mumhain” share the same tune as The Boyne Water, originally a Protestant victory song from the Battle of the Boyne. Its melody was reclaimed by the Irish many times over as an act of subtle rebellion.
3) Weile Weile Waile
Propaganda through children’s songs. “Weile Waile” represents the “skipping songs” that circulated within the English Pale, designed to make schoolchildren fear the native Irish living in the woods.
4) Follow Me Up to Carlow
The melody of this song survives from the 16th-century Battle of Glenmalure—one of the rare battles the Irish actually won. The lyrics carry the kind of rallying cry that leaders would shout while marching towns toward Carlow… a battle they subsequently lost.
So “Follow me up to Carlow” was, historically speaking, terrible advice.
⭐ About The Reelin’ Rogues
From the hills and the seas come The Reelin’ Rogues, a bardic band of rebels with a thrilling roar and thundering rhythm. These Rogues call you forth to the tavern — that ancient museum of memory — where we gather to invoke the magic of the ages.
Expect daring feats of vocal strength, breathtaking stunts of drumming speed, and melodic mysteries born of ancient Celtic tradition. Our sweeping epics and raucous audience participation celebrate the story of the Celts in a way that cannot be experienced anywhere else.
