Steve Riley, David Greely, and Joel Savoy at Fiddle Tunes 2010. What is the name of the 2 songs they play in this video? I know them but can't think of the names and it's driving me crazy.
First one is La Valse d'Amitié (Doc Guidry)
Second is something Dennis McGee used to play but I can't remember the title. Well, the title would change depending on what day you asked him. I think it's a reel.

I don't know what the 2nd one is either but from that tune they break into another song which I think is the Reel de Barzas (or at least the beginning of that reel). If you refer to Steve and the MP's album Bon Reve, there is a tract called "McGee Medley" which starts off different from the youtube video you posted but ends up sounding the same about 1/3 of the way through. My guess is they are playing the MeGee Medley from Bon Reve but are just starting off with a different tune then what they start off with on the album.

Yep...is sure is. After Neal mentioned Dennis McGee thing I went digging through my Steve Riley albums and found the McGee Medley, which was right on the money.
