...and because Ashley MacIsaac isn't well enough known around these American parts...check his oeuvre out on Allmusic.com or Wikipedia.org...
"Sleepy Maggie"
"Devil in the Kitchen"
Blocked from embedding, but worth watching - beautiful, traditional fiddle music here.
Nearly breaking his ankles in front of the Chieftans - gorgeous
With Buddy McMaster opening for the White Stripes
Twenty years back and already dancin' like a fiend
Showing off his great sartorial skills
At the same concert playing "MacDougall's Pride"
A ten-minute interview with Ashley suggesting that he may have settled down a bit
"Fish Tunes"??

I got to see MacIsaac when he opened for the Chieftans in Louisville 'bout twelve years ago. His opening slot was amazing, absolutely shocking as he came out in a big, black hoodie pounding combat boots and fiddling like a madman.
Tried to see him in a solo show a couple of years later in Louisville again, but he bagged the entire tour for some reason. Haven't seen him come around the Midwest since then. He's hit NY and Boston, maybe Chicago and Seattle but never 'round here.
