[mrgreer51]

@battlehrfred Thank you for all the nice comments, and hello Newfoundland!

[Narwhalplaytime]

[kutty1183]

[TheThroney]

i wished my pa played music and with me.. all ive got to play along with are records and youtube videos.. nice post guys, looks like fun

[pappyfiddle]

I took a typing class in high school, some of those gals could type 200 wpm. And there I was plunking along at about 40. They just live faster I guess.

[MikeMcDonald1]

Next time, find a way to get the clock behind you to speed up too....

[lanlesnee]

Sir, I would like permission to court one of your daughters, anyone even the one walking around in the back ground is fine.

I have some musskets and some warm blankets to trade.

[RichieDOF]

Thanks for posting, from all in Ireland, come over here and do a tour!!!!

[strollby]

just love your music, makes one tap the feet and smile, thanks for posting

[docsavage98]

makes me wish I was young again and could cut a stomp dance to this

[bfgivmfith]

I hope you got the bug into some of those fifth graders! You all are a pleasure to watch and hear. Thank you. If only we could all be so fortunate to play like that.

[ROSARIO902]

@NorwegianGardener Thank you! And hello, Norway!

[r51collins]

Great fun, great music, I'm watching you on the other side of the pond in damp and miserable Oxford and you've certainly brightened it up!!!

[mrgreer51]

@r51collins Glad you liked the music. We're emerging from a long, cruel winter over here.

[rcrmsr41]

[fireburst102]

u guys r awsome

[halden52]

[Benj888]

I love how a lady hippie walks through the room of a country hoedown.

[SadChild01]

AWSOME



[billton12]

now that's what I call some good music! it don't any more "ole timey" than that. Great job guys!!

[jcbbe]

Sorry to hear you live so far away but glad u-tube makes it possible to play along with long distance neighbors. Another blessing we sometimes take for granted.

[jcbbe]

She is not playing faster you are just getting old,LOL Keep up the fun music, do you live anywhere near Northern MD? We have a coffee house you would be very welcome to come and play anytime.

[mrgreer51]

@jcbbe We live in SW MO and NW AR, a long way from MD. Coffee houses are fun though!

[Brettimuss]

I am in love with Emily

[hockeydad916]

Thank you and your family for making my day. Everytime I need a pick me up, I will listen to you guys play and it just makes the day better. Thank you again from the tundra, freezing cold Wisconsin

[Charlie5908]

Hi Dad. She is really pushing you. You could try a thumbpick and 1 finger pick on your index finger. It would be a lot easier in you. Keep up the good music. Charlie the Fiddler

[mktmic7]

nice job

[LuizAromatis]

very good! a family that play together stay together ... congratulations ...

[ElLoboWolfy]

I reckon you're just gonna have to learn to play faster, eh ?

[mrgreer51]

@ElLoboWolfy Ah reckon it wouldn't matter. She'd just go even faster.

[scheissdreckhass]

so jolly -:)

[oneandonlybatfoy]

I gota hand it to you pop thats pretty cool playing from both sides, brings a happy feeling all round lol :-)

[gagator61270]

still love yall (after listening more than once a day for over a year now lol)god bless

[mrgreer51]

@gagator61270 Thank you! We're glad you enjoy listening. It is fun music.

[TheMuddyRiver]

Thanks--great to see this!

[westlag]

Come on Pa - keep up

[sealand000]

Great playing! Funny how the other person sidled her way to try and stay out of the frame.

[caseygblake]

It's a good thing Mr Greer put his foot down (up) otherwise Emily's violin would have started smoking!!

[geisterbahn1]

do you guy eat like cat fishstuffed with hot peppers and carry shotguns to the Sunday service and ride on the back of pickups and like live in the swamps and stuff. nice vibe like that music .well played

[mrgreer51]

@geisterbahn1 Actually, Emily is a second grade teacher, and I teach junior high. But we are hillbillies at heart, and while we do not do the things you list, we do live differently than city folk do.

[geisterbahn1]

@mrgreer51 real disappointing! I was hoping that you had like shot guns and pick ups and swamp log cabins like on the films . Nice music and well played. Emmys a real mean fiddle player, and that back up is great, keep it up. Love your railroad cap where can i buy one

[mrgreer51]

@geisterbahn1 I bought the hat in a farmer store. You can also get them on the internet. They are usually called engineer hats. You can also get them in downtown Chattanooga, TN at the Chattanooga Choo-choo.

[moroes]

Nice music :)

[TheDuckjay101]

I really like you guys playing,

[goforittowman]

Would love to hear her at my place anytime I wanted too.. You are great there Emily Nice going there all of you

[Nickohlson]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[siandbezz]

Well just brilliant :0)

Top stuff guys, keep up the good work.

Best Regards, the UK :0)

[hayouni1968]

lucky is the man who wed the fiddle player!!!!!!!!

[nmdd1989]

That was truly amazing - Keep up the good work. (South Wales, United Kingdom)

[mickerin64]

Hearing you guys takes me back about 20 years when my daughter was practicing with our organist for Palm Sunday. They had finished when Erin broke out into a fiddle tune. The pastor came out of his office and said, "Erin, what is that? to which she said "Devil's Dream.+ We all laughed.

[mrgreer51]

Emily used to play "Devil's Dream." I play it once in a while on the banjo. To me, it's kind of hard on the banjo. Much harder than "Dueling Banjo."

[BluegrassFiddleman]

No, Mr. Greer, thank you! You always thank us music lovers, but it's very nice of you to post and share your music with us. I love watching your vids, especially when you guys play the waltzes. How long have you guys been playing?

PS - I always find it funny watching the girl trying to slink by unnoticed at the beginning when I watch this.

[mrgreer51]

Hahaha! We always crack up when we see Molly slink by on this one. Emily and I started figuring out the fiddle when she was about 8. I've been playing since I was 15.

[rodeorun]

beautiful and talented you must be very proud!! p.s. i get yelled at for sawin a little to fast to hehe

[animator96]

Awsome old man! XD

Anyways, I just transferred the guitar into a pianoversion, so I made up som different chords and now I play to this song XD

[kkasper007]

You guys rock...:0) you had me, soon as you said music lover...still trying to learn how to play...tho..I keep on keepen on...lol love your tunes..thanks...for keepen it fun:0)

[jnjgoss48]

Great!!!!!!!!!1

[Njtiger888]

Mr Greer, please take your family and go on America's got talent... you guys are just to good not to share this with America on primetime...

[FunkyRoad96]

@Njtiger888 I am FunkyRoad96 and I approve that message! Lol, Yeah seriously, these folk could teach this weird pop culture world a thing or two about the real roots of music, wouldn't you say?

[davidich]

i've been watching all your videos , and i think you guys are amazing.

[mrgreer51]

Thanks. We're just having fun, which is what this kind of music is all about.

[jwlong1862]

lol,, Dad your good but your daughter kicks it...I love it, gonna watch all ov these!

[fiddlerosin]

That daughter of yours just won't listen to you will she ! Great fiddling

[calinkus]

Great job.

[Bobrop123]

Great rendition ! Love it !

[renerjani]

Great song Thanx from Slovenia

[Neuferk]

The title is wrong. This is another song.

[mrgreer51]

Could be. Around here, this tune goes by at least three names: "Up Jumped the Devil," "Boogarman," and a title that is too risque to post here. So, you may be right.

[badalternative]

Thank you from Winnipeg, Canada.

[DiegoElArbol]

Wonderful!!! Thank you from Buenos Aires, Argentina

[wjb1231]

you're a great duo

[crazycelt89]

I want to holler out on everyone of your alls' videos, but my co-workers probably wouldn't appreciate it.

[HellbillyCuntryMusic]

can you paly sally goodin?

[fandanstan]

They already have. Check their vids.

[MrSilverdust]

Yeeehaaaaaaaaaa! Smokin !

Always a great pleasure listening to you folks ! ! ! ! !

It´s so good to watch someone who really love what they are doing. When I listen to you I have a big grin on my face and I almost jump around the place like mad.

THANKS !

[crs0221]

Awesome! I love listening to ya'll.

[sferemonk]

Aw! that's real purdy!That ole devil, eh.

[cj5nutz]

Great Job !! Dump the old guy on the guitar and you will go far !! J/K you two sound terrific!

[stubbleking]

Now that's how a French lady plays a fiddle!

[potorrenko]

[scheissdreckhass]

[mrgreer51]

Thanks for those nice compliments on our music and fun!

[scheissdreckhass]

i wished i had also such outstanding parents like you who had getting me in touch with making music- i think making music is one of the best abilities making ones life rich.

my admiration for your familie is huge

[hgarvey08]

Who is she? Wow, hot

[syadkir]

Thanks for sharing your wonderful music !! It really makes my day brighter !

[elmovhossenfopp]

Hey, didn't Don Rich play this and call it "Fiddle Polka"?

But you are doing great regardless.

[mrgreer51]

I don't know, did he? This song does have several names. I have heard it called "The Boogarman."

[Burfordfiddler1962]

Awesome Job there folks, This is a tune I recall from over 30 years ago but I had never learned it!! Yesseree she did so speed up....lol!

Rufus

[Grampy1975]

You guys just freakin rock, I am trying to learn Banjo and you guys make me look like a plinker. Oh well I guess it's bac to Guitar Hero for me....

[Criptografo]

your songs make me happy!

[cfrey20]

this is my favoritest fiddle song

[stud915]

I love this tune. Im just gettin started on learnin how to play from an old ozark mountain fiddler. Well maybe one day ill get good enough and u might see me on here fiddlin.

[terrymazzerey]

very good, thank you,, i am a 1st year violin student who is about to use it as fire wood ,, thanks for the video it has refueled my faith that i can get my violin to sound beautiful one day, i am on stricktly strings vol.1 and it is so boring, thanks again

[mrgreer51]

Thanks, but don't try to copy any of our techniques. We do it all wrong because we have never had any lessons and we do everything by ear. We just figured it out as good as we could and had fun.

[yamahajunkie]

Too fast,too fast,Emily.You're gettin pops out of breath.Breath Mr greer,breath.hahaha I love this,you guys are great! I"m Still waiting on" I'll Fly Away" done in your house.The one onstage is a bit unclear.Was that Ma onstage with you?

[mrgreer51]

Yes, that was Ma on stage. The girls both got married recently, so we don't get as much chance to play together lately. We do need to do a new recording of "I'll Fly Away," though. The other one was recorded on an old style recorder, and it was far away from the stage.

[jtraske]

gee dagnabbitt!! emily, ditch the weird grandpa and go find a band sister. you're ready!

[wyane380]

I wasn't entirely sure if I wanted to play the fiddle before this, but this has really inspired me. Thank you for the great tunes!

[mrgreer51]

Well, if you want to learn the fiddle, this is a great tune to start on. It is one of the easiest ones.

[cedwards790]

ya id have to sit down for that one too. my arm would be tired after that. good job

[cedwards790]

haha good job keepin up my arm would be so tired after that one.

I really love the way you guys play it.,special the gospel ones.since I'm a christian.,thanks alot. God bless you all! amen amen

[RHMISTERIOSO]

SICE WHEN EMELY HAS BEEN PLAYING?

[mrgreer51]

She has been playing about 12 or 13 years. She has never had a lesson. We just kind of sat around and figured it out the best we could.

[emumama]

I stumbled on your videos entirely by accident but I'm so glad I did. I have been trying to teach myself to play the fiddle. Boy, do I have a long way to go, but you have inspired me to try harder and keep on. Thanks so much for sharing these. You both are the best I've heard in a long, long time!

E.L.M. in Boone, NC

[011tombo]

I think you two are awesome. Great music-playing. Question for the guy: you mentioned elsewhere that your daughter has been playing for some years. How about you? When did you start playing music? I ask this because I have only recently started playing music myself, and I'm kind of sorry I didn't start earlier. Well, I suppose it's never too late and the whole point is in having a great time. Best wishes for both of you.

[mrgreer51]

I've been at it for over 30 years.

[Loisenal]

OK, I just gotta make a comment here. I been workin' on fiddlin' for over 40 years and it don't sound this good. Thank you.

[hasapis]

i am gonna see all your videos and i will Drink a beer!!

Hail From Greece!!!!!

[mahavishnu009]

Good job to the both of you!!! Does the girl talk in any of these videos? :)

[mrgreer51]

Yes, she talks on "Quintlexia." She sings on several of the videos as well.

[calico03]

To quote Mohammed Ali, "I don't even know what that means, but if it's good, it's me."

[corvettedude346]

[DEVUNK88]
