I do see Vince did this a while back.

Tim, that is awesome. I normally accompany someone else playing it (the easy way out). I'll have to give it a more serious try. The problem is when you start playing with one of those session fiddlers who want to play at breakneck speeds...

The dance book suggests 105. I may go back and try it

Thanks Tim, that sounds great! I do an old-timey version with far fewer notes. Do you know where I can find the score you're working from?

OH Hell yes... That sounded sweet. Whew! Time to march back up the neck.

Yes what source did you pull that from?

Once again,...good stuff!

Al posted it up a few days ago. I got it from him.

I've been working on this one since Al posted the score. I shot about 20 videos all showing a left hand flailing about up the neck... Tim, you make it look so easy, but I have found it to be anything but... I have all the fingerings down, but it's not automatic yet.

forever to persevere!

There are lots of ways to skin a cat. I'm still deciding on a few fingerings, but basically sticking with what I came up with. Deciding between a pull or a struck note can change things.
