@capitalismforme You hold the fiddle in a different position and use a different bow technique when you're playing Scottish fiddle music. The positions are quite different to those used by classical violinists and, if you're used to seeing a violin played in the classical manner, I can understand why you think Pete's bow hand is terrible. The technique for Scottish fiddle looks sloppy by comparison, but it's purposely designed to be that way for the music.

His bow hand is terrible. But, somehow, he draws a very good sound. And his vibrato is robust.

Just played in a session with him! :) He's an amazing violinist. This was even better in real life. Beautiful performance of a beautiful song.
