Hello, I'm Jimeoin.
I'm Irish.
Can you hear that? Irish music.
A few Australian people associated with Ireland –
a bit of music, a bit of dancing, thing we call The Craic.
Let's get inside and have a look.
How is it going?
You didn't know I could play the knee.
How long have you been playing the accordion for?
If I told you that, I'd be giving away my age.
Sixty years I have been playing it.
No, you have not. You're not 60.
I'm not quite. I've been playing this for 60 years.
And Joe?
I've been playing it around the same time,
let's say 60 years, I'd say, Jim.
How long have you been in Australia for?
46 years. This is what you do,
you play Irish music in Australia? I do. I love playing the music.
Is there a good Irish scene, a lot of people playing?
The house we're in here is a great house for music.
But none of them are young.
The music scene is very good in Australia,
very good,
right through Australia from east to west,
north to south it is.
Let's have another reel or something now.
