I have never picked up a banjo myself, although my good friend Patrick Ryan is a banjo player and from my limited knowledge I think he's a very good one, you can't beat banjo.

Just for info perhaps for others. There are a few types of banjo. The 5 string as used in Bluegrass (amongst other music) and familiar to many in things like the theme for Beverly Hilbillies and Duellin Banjos as played in the film Deliverence is probably the best known. Patrick here is playing tenor banjo, an instrument that has two sorts of lives and often different tunings. It's often tuned CDGA in trad Jazz but Irish and other folk players commonly go GDAE, keeping the 5th interval and putting it an octave below the violin and mandolin.
Born2Run. Patrick is doing far better than I would with those tunes on Youtube but I think it is in order to give a clip of the player he (and I) admires here. Barney McKenna influenced loads of people towards the tenor banjo and is often even credited with the standardisation of the "Irish" GDAE. He reached several generations.
The clip I am giving is an older Barney McKenna. He starts of with a slow air called the Old House and has a reel in the middle who's title at the moment eludes me but it also has the two in your clip, ie. The Maid Behind The Bar and The High Reel.
