Thanks Mark 😄
    In reply to - Bluegrassgal started the topic Bill Sullivan's Polka in the forum Student Videos The weather has been dreadful today so I've decided to upload the latest tune I've been learning. I don't think Jason teaches this one but I came across it on youtube and managed to write my own tab, so feeling a bit chuffed with myself. Not perfect yet but getting there :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ab6jvZPOEIY ]]>         e59c6751fe4b34a715e93d7f1d018171 Bluegrassgal replied to the topic Bill Sullivan's Polka in the forum Student Videos https://fiddlehed.com/forums/topic/bill-sullivans-polka/#post-46743 Sun, 28 Mar 2021 09:44:23 -0700 Thank you @owneee61 and @maryreid

    I am reading the tab on this one as I have only just learnt it this week. I don’t usually video myself until I’ve learnt it by heart but I just wanted to see how it sounded.

Experiment a bit and see what’s best for you.

I can’t remember where I heard or read this but it goes something like this, maybe it was Jason “the fiddle should be played with passion, go for the notes, don’t be afraid to make a noise” This has stuck in my head for some reason and I think you are on the right track. Keep going!
