I play in a Celtic music group here in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. We would like to call ourselves "So much music; so little time". Would there be a Gaelic phrase for this?
Thanks for your help.

so much music

níl ach oiread na fríde ama
so little time
I'm still a learner, so be sure to get input from others, especially for tattoos.

My response was more or less literal (and a bit long for a name, unless you want to use just an oiread seo ceoil). What barnaí gave you is shorter and looks good, meaning basically:

Mórán cheoil; beagán ama
[a] lot of music; [a] small amount of time
I'm still a learner, so be sure to get input from others, especially for tattoos.

Thank you for your replies and suggestions. Kevin, I think I am going to take Christy's suggestion just because it is shorter, and probably easier to use as a band name.

Sorry, I guess it was Barnai that made the suggestion initially. Thanks
