    I'm working on Big Bear, a Métis fiddle tune by John Arcand. It's a minor key thing that to me has a little Monroe flavour to it.

    We played "Logan County Blues" last night. It's now in my head, so it's as good as known.

    Thanks Lee. That tune has a nice bounce to it. I really like my Goldrush mandolin. I have had it sense 06 (new). Guess it's a keeper because that's a long time for me to hold on to one. Keep pickin'

    Leather Britches on clawhammer banjo. I can't play it on the fiddle to save my life, maybe later I'll work on it for mandolin.

    East Tennessee Blues. Learning the version from the Roland White book. Think I may have it up to speed by next week. Also working on Foggy Mountain Breakdown, which I think may be one of those loooooooong term projects in terms of being able to play it at the speeds typically chosen by banjo pickers.

    I've been playing around with Georgia Railroad for the past week or two, still might do a little to arrange it a bit more and put some variations in there. Fun tune though, I drew from a Norman Blake fiddle version for my inspiration...

I rented the movie just to learn that tune, as I remembered it in one of the scenes.

    Most recent one I have down is Liberty... now on to Fisher's Hornpipe.

    Not sure why, but I enjoy figuring these out on mandolin waaaay more than I ever did on guitar. They're like fun little puzzles. Mandolin Sudoku, if you will.
