[northbound74]

you guys are great.if your ever on the eastcoast again,let us know.

[huntinlab]

love that song! learned it long time ago, haven't thought to play it in a while! I play by ear, limits me in some ways, but is an advantage in others. both ways is ideal.

Very nice...nice work on the banjo buddy! I Have a very old 5 string banjo..which I just strum..why bother with the clawhammer or Scruggs style...wouldn't mind trying a 4 string tenor..sounds cool. Good vid

[bakaneko9905]

my fiddle was totally distroyed before i was born about 85 years ago then fixed a while ago so now it looks really old only because it was snaped in two and scratched to peices but i can't seem to find a fiddle with a sound like the one i got -- until this song , your sound rocks :)

[mrosloff]

Wow you're both extremely talented! I'm a fan now. I love that song. Keep up the good work.

[OldtimeFiddler]

What was the name of the first tune? I like that one alot. I'd Like to learn it.

[TheBachands]

the name of the first tune is "Little Billy Wilson" which I learnt from Erynn Marshall, a talented fiddler and wonderful entertainer.

[bakaneko9905]

do you teach your self the songs by ear or look at sheets of music or..both?

[TheBachands]

Hi, this is Qristina, I usually listen to the song first, and if I can find the sheet music I will go with that also, but often all I've got to go with is the tune itself. :)

[SamTexan91]

So talented!

[howssorrynow]

you looked so happy playing that fiddle, tell your brother to smile when playing the bango, 10 out of 10 i really enjoyed it.

[TheBachands]

oh I know.. the whole family bugs him about it!

[OldtimeFiddler]

I can see your having a ton of fun. Your brother's cording the banjo rather than finger picken... yeah! Thats the way we do it here in Missouri and if I am not mistaken that is the more "traditional" way of playing...that is until bluegrass became big.

[cruzbullit]

Yet another great one. Is that a tenor banjo? What kind is it? How is it?

[TheBachands]

Hi, thanks for your kind compliments. It is an old tenor banjo with Irish Tenor Banjo strings on it. My brother has been playing it for a few weeks, it's a lot of fun. We decided to play a couple of Appalachian tunes at this concert & thought the banjo would give them a more authentic "mountain" feel. Glad you liked them :) Qristina
