Some good stuff going on here.  Don't be afraid to slow it down and make every note count.

I like that - it's full of life. I like those 'flail with a ding' moves, you know, where you brush all the strings and hit the drone. Feel the beat INside your body and you can't go wrong.

Thanks for the kind words fellas!  Carl, yep I rushed this one! haha  Funny thing is, when I play it "off camera" the tempo slows.  Maybe it's a touch of hte "OK, gonna play it quick, get it over with and post it on the Ning site before 9:30pm". :P  Definitely one I'll do another video of in the future to gauge my progress.  I was going for a little call and responce thing with this one.

Both of these sound good, I can tell you are practicing a lot and enjoying the sound of your own music, and so am I. But Matt, did Winterthur take all your chairs?

I like the 'call across the valley', with the softer echo response... great for a journey ober de mountain feeling!
