    This is the most amazing I have ever watched, I was in Ireland and the GAA finals was going down; it was on the all the TV’s and I managed to luckily catch only a Camogie match (yea just as badass as Hurling) when I came to the conclusion the rest of the world is a bunch of wussies when it comes to sports!!

    There is beauty in slow motion, there is beauty in Irish music and there is beauty in the skilful display of a 3000 year old sport. Captivating production again Mr Dedalus! I also like the intricacy of how, in your description you quote PJ Devlin speaking of the Greeks and how your name is taken from Joyce, a great Irish man who in turn took it from the Father of Icarus, a greek, Be it intentional or otherwise ;)

      Thanks very much mate! :) This was the first video I tried my hand at making and it's a shame because I couldn't figure out how to put it in to HD the first time round. The allusion to the Greeks and Dedalus/Daedalus was just a coincidence but I am happy you picked up where the name comes from haha.

    I m watching BLITZ, a Statham flick, wherein he beats 3 would-be car thieves describing the game as summat "a cross between hockey and murder" and how that dwarf hockey stick he's beating them with is called a hurler ... so I hit the net to find out what hurling was/is.
    Now, if I've got this right, the game is all about how many times u can score and keep your head attached, right?

    The footage is great, and now I would love to visit a game of hurling if I will ever have a chance to, but can somebody tell which tune is playing and who are the musicians? The music perfomance is just awesome!

    • @matthewedgeworth4509

      The song used is Marcshlua Uí Néill (O'Neill's Cavalry March)
      arranged and performed by Seán Ó Riada and his band Ceoltóirí Chualann

      @@matthewedgeworth4509 Thank you so much! And I`m sorry, you`ve responded so quickly I haven`t even noticed it!
      So that`s why it sounds much rougher (in a good way) and got more drive to it than modern bands and bands from 70-ties and 80-ties, especially the bodhrán. How do you think, is it closer to authentic Irish tradition?

      @@matthewedgeworth4509 o, I have. I even like the musical selection. My ears and temperament can't take it. High pitches actually hurt at normal speaking levels. If I turn it down to a soft level , or bass it up or treble it down, it's OK... I did not, my bad, and an uncouth comment came out thru my fingertips. I wasn't insulting your choice or anything, twas very apropos. I'm a very wired person who needs calmness and peace, such music makes me frenetic. I had to turn it low... but it was still too fast and I hadda turn it off. I should not have said anything at all. It's my nerve problem, not yours... mea culpa...lo siento mucho....
