    "Sean Nós" in the Irish language means "old style" and refers to various sean-nós activities, including sean-nós singing and sean-nós dancing.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sean-n%C3%B3s_song

    GRMA is the common abbreviation of "Go raibh maith agat", which means "Thank you very much" in Gaelic.

    Second hand places like Chapters have very little or no trad Irish in my experience. New CDs (although many recordings are ancient) cost some EUR 20 a go in An Siopa Leabhar, and that is beyond my budget. GRMA

    There's an underground music shop on Wicklow St, on the same side as the Häagen-Dazs cafe, a few shops away from it. It's literally a black door and you go downstairs. Only place I could think of, he sells all bootlegs and basically rare cd's.

    Claddagh Records in Temple Bar is the best place for trad CD but they only sell new I think. The staff is usually well informed if you want sth on special order too.
