I just wish there was sheet music for this on the fiddle... my fingers are itching for some 'grass...

Awesome work by the way! For two weeks worth of playing, you seem amazing!

[useryug]

Thanks for this DarkDavie... though I've played fiddle and guitar for over 35 years, the banjo still eludes me! - wish I could play properly.. Plenty more for me to learn!

Many thanks for the sub!

Cheers,

Barry

[monicacostantini]

There IS sheet music for this stuff ! I'm having great fun with it...

[Geek92]

not quiet the foggy mountain but i like it, guess thats the reason the (ish) is there, doesnt look like youre not using your middle finger.

[useryug]

Hey, Geek92. Unfortunately, I've still can't play banjo. I see your playing's great, and I just wish I could do that!

All the best, and thanks for comment.

Hi Barry, i enjoyed that

[useryug]

Hey Dave! good. Thanks. - Always wanted to pursue the bluegrass sound.. specially with the violin.. dunno if I'll ever get there, but at least I shall try!

Thanks again

See ya,

Barry

5*just for the fun I had watching, I don´t know why it made me smile all the way through, was it the at the view of the guitar hanging above the heating, the weird arrangement...anyway, very charming !

[useryug]

Uh oh.. foiled by the ol' guitar over the heating trick! - what can I try next?

dunno about weird... I'm doin' me best here!

Thanks for comment, cartoonage.

Why you cotton-pickin', hoedown crashin', mountain oyster! Ha-ha, yeehaw! Rhode Island Red is doing the do-si-do! Yeehaw... Now, all you need is a doghouse bass! We'll make some kind of Yank Rebel out of you yet... a mountain man, Southern-style Rebel Yank! 8-)

[useryug]

Whilst I'm in complete agreement with all of the above sentiments, this kind of talk has me collapsing with the giggles after about the 3rd word. - Dunno what kind of Yank I'd be, but I'll keep on tryin'!

.. bit thin on the bass. coulda done more.. but I wanted to get something thrown together a bit sharpish..... had that Freddy after me, and I thought I'd better show a result!!

Thanks,

B:-)

PS..Geezers here can be young or old..No discrimination!

[jazzobassoon]

I like your music ...I have some BELA FLECK CD's (with my friend PAUL HANSON BASSONIST)GREAT MAN GOOD MUSIC ....you have a nice collection on the wall

[useryug]

Thanks, Jazzo, I'm honoured. I checked some of the Bela Fleck on your channel, and also on youtube generally.- Very good - wasn't actually familiar. - I have much to learn! - My love of the bluegrass sound goes back to the country rock of the '70's

[ILyekkaKai]

Definitely a lovely tune to wake up to , thank you!

[useryug]

Rhiannon, hi, and thanks for the lovely things you say...

I hope the day went well...

Barry

[bazwillrun]

Good to see you back, wondered what had happened to you !

Between you and Diesel you play most of the instruments known to mankind ! i'm struggling with just the guitar !

Banjo sounds great, a superb addition to your musical armoury.

[useryug]

Hey Baz, When you let us know where to hear your playin' we can all do the accompaniment!

Thanks for your kindness.. That bluegrass thing is something I've been after all my adult life... never was much of a fan of much British folk music.. having said that, there's Lindesfarne, .. Jethro Tull ..

guess I'll just try to practise ..
