sounds good. I'm thinking about getting that camera. Do you like it?

I loved the Canon Powershot S2 until the zoom mechanism jammed the lens and now it won't work anymore. This is a common problem with these. Search the Web and you will find many folks with the same experience.

Sweet playing!

Thanks dude! Do you have video or audio of yourself playing this tune? I would like to compare "notes"...heh, heh.

[dread66mon]

LOL! I've messed around with it and can play it pretty straight - just haven't gotten around to working up an arrangement. That'll be one of the ones I post in a lil' bit. I do like your arrangement - it's different than what I've heard, in a good way.

It's actually an interpretation of Seifert's tab from "Join the Jam" with some rhythmic liberties.

Thanks for your video, just recently bought 2 dulcimers, 1 spruce top crisp and bright and a lovely all solid walnut warm and mellow and its such a joy learning to play them. Love the shady grove tune and I just enjoyed jamming with you on my new 00015 martin, thanks again for sharing your tunes and hope to see/hear some more. sillyfan.
