|f_annotation='''TEAR THE CALICO [2]''' (Stróic an Ceaileacó). AKA and see “[[Rip the Calico]].” Irish, Reel (cut or whole time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Breathnach/No. 274): ABC (Breathnach/No. 245): ABBC (Moylan): ABBCC (Taylor). Breathnach (1976) says “this is a wrenboys reel,” referring to the ritual procession of boys in Ireland at New Year. David Taylor (1992) is of the opinion the tune should be played at a steady pace with a hornpipe rhythm. The second strain is very similar to the second strain of "[[Tear the Calico (1)]]."
