I'm just not trying to play all the notes, and in a way, fiddlers do the same.
Left hand speed can be the higher the less force is neccessary, and fiddlers have considerably less force to apply,...

That G buzz gives it exactly the tube-amp compression Led Zeppelin would have aimed for :cool: and you're not alone with this..
I have noticed two things:
#1 - when practising stubbornly on the same faulty phrase, the brain can learn how to do it wrong and stick to it.
#2 - when learning a new tune, the brain overwrites...
Sugarfoot Rag was not familiar to me, and listening to a video of Sierra Hull and Sam Bush playing it convinced me that this is not an easy access indeed, a pill to be swallowed with a verrrry big...
I tend to move around difficult tunes by practising other, easier tunes in between. This gives me a chance to slowly ooze into the castle of challenge by using back doors I found on the easy detours...
Instructions on how to do things is a more important purpose of YT than many of us musicians think - it's not just for fun. I have found many useful hints myself that way (e.g. recently on how to...
that's what I was trying to say, in an even smaller nutshell :cool:
Looks like Simon's stats only ever registered MY views on his channel, that would fit the data.
I do mostly mandolin fingering on OM, ETG and RTG, examples can be seen here and there, but it takes well-aimed jumps.
I have rheumatoid arthritis and going fine on MTX, but the pain is caused by an inflammation which must be adressed separately, in my case by injection of corticoid meds directly into the affected...
I have looked for that kind of age/gender statistics on my channel but it says "not enough demographic data". That's OK for me, I don't like statistics based on insignificantly low counts...
I have also mostly older tunes (my oldest is "Archibald Macdonald of Keppoch", 18th cty), but not all of them.
"Luke Skywalker Walks on Sunshine" must be younger than 64...:confused:
Yes. Longscale, that is, aka "plectrum guitar", but tuned GDAE.
Just in case you're hungry...

Age-old thing for me. Mandolins are too small for me in general by now, my Fylde OM has a rather wide nut for an OM, my Royall RTG has 4 strings spread out over a standard guitar fretboard size....
I'll say PB42-PB30-PB20-PL13
I was thinking the same. There seems to be a shrinking supply of that.
On Earth Peace.
Now that may be more than Santa can provide from his factory on that ever-dwindling polar ice shield...
in our sessions, we extend the last chorus with
...and whiskey on a Monday,
and whiskey on a Tuesday,
...
...
and whiskey on a Sunday.
A somewhat labyrinthine reel set with a faint hint at Christmas.

Those wooden dancers very much remind me of the song "Whiskey on a Sunday" - I have never seen anything like them before.
There's no escape from the darkside. There is, however, a rehab programme with an RTG.
I admit to having started that with my question, and without having porridge myself even (it's egg, bacon or black pudding, fried potatoes and tomatoes for me). :grin:
Man, Dagger, what breakfast was that? :disbelief:
I'll have what he's having.
That's one fine recursive self-answering question there. In the mandolin world, we call it a tailpiece. :cool:
