Cripple Creek on the banjo. (Scruggs and Fiddle style)

Cripple Creek played by MG on his 5-string Kay banjo.

First played in Scruggs style (Bluegrass style) then played in Fiddle (Melodic) style.

It was a fine summer evening for some backyard pick'n. =-)

@jstrathm1 no because all a rick is, is a line of stacked wood...a rick can be as tall as you want it or as long as you want it. So basically if you can stack it tall enough or long enough you could have 1 rick in a cord or 2 ricks it doesnt really matter. all a rick is, is a line of stacked wood

@mastercueartist What do you mean that's not a sensible question, if both are quantitative measures of firewood, surely they can be compared. A rick is 8 ft by 2 ft by 4 ft, so couldn't you have just told me 4 ricks in a cord? And I'd like a picture of the pickup you can put that much firewood in.

You will also get fed back from the untrimed strings at the pegs if they touch!!

@jstrathm1 lol thats not even a sensible question...you can put however many ricks you want with a cord it depends on how long or tall you stack it. Do you even know what a rick is? if you want to do it in math terms here is an easy way to look at it, a cord is 8 feet by 8 feet by 4 feet. So pretty much a pick up truck bed with it stacked about 3 feet higher than the edges. But your comment about how many ricks in a cord is just not even sensible
