Shout out to the banjo player. Holy smoke. To keep up with that tempo with clawhammer banjo for so long time is insane.

yeah because it's super easy to keep that tempo with any of the other instruments

I started fiddling at jams with Roger at Folk School of St. Louis. His mother told me she took him to Winfield when he first violin in the hs orchestra. Roger asked, "Can I do that with my violin?" She replied, "Yes, you can." Yes, you can, Roger. Yes, you can!

I helped Roger get hooked up with the best players in St. Louis when he was first getting started. He just won the fiddle contest at Winfield in 2016. Amazing fiddler.

Haha! Hey Guy I'm on bass, and I'm not insulted! Plenty of flavors in Old Time, I get this ain't for everyone. Brian Slattery, on banjo, is a published writer, and sez he has a lot more fun reading his negative rather than positive reviews on Amazon!

Hi Roger - I restore fiddles for friends and fun. Can you remember what strings you were using at this time? Thanks! I just finished a 1850s Mirecourt and have Helicores on it but want more options. - jim p.s. found your videos via the Lazy John version you recorded at Book House in Maplewood, Missouri.. Great job!

@robinnetherton5817 4 жыл бұрын

I don't think Roger's seen this question, but I can tell you that at this particular time, Roger was almost certainly using either Prims or John Pearse steel core fiddle strings.

@RinnNetherton 4 жыл бұрын

Hi Jim -- thanks for the compliment! Robin is right -- I was using John Pearse strings at the time, but it was honestly just because they were a fairly inexpensive option available. I'm still exploring different string options and haven't really settled on a favorite yet.

In my mind the fiddle is telling a story, something that happened deep in the bluegrass mountains; the guitar starts laughing and says tell me more! The fiddle is happy to oblige and continues telling the tale about a man who drank too much of his own moonshine and one day staggered drunkenly into a bear cave; the guitar laughs again and asks what happened next? Well, says the violin, the bear ate the man, which filled the bear with so much alcohol that it stumbled drunkenly through the forest until it fell over a cliff and drowned in the river below; the guitar laughs even louder and says so what's the motto of the story? The violin replies: "There ain't no motto, it's just a story I love to tell, so let me keep on tellin' it and you keep on laughin' at it, otherwise there ain't no music!"
