Hey Henry…just keep practicing. I’m hoping to do group lessons at two different times: 12 and 6 PM PST. That way people all around the world can tune in at a convenient time. Now training a fiddle tutor to help with this. 🤓

I’m new to your course and enjoying very much. I think a lesson on the Mixolydian scale (and other scales) would be good. As you mentioned in your video above, reviewing the scales with the song would be a big help.
I know a little music theory but not very much so if you have any lessons on Music Theory they would be of interest to me.
Thanks,
John

As for Music Theory, the section called Note Reading for Fiddlers can support learning theory. It can be found under the ‘Courses” tab, then ‘Pathways’
There’s also some common questions answered in the page Fiddle Questions about note reading, found in ‘Support’ tab.

I love this tune @detale! Thanks for sharing. I like the echo effect, how did you do it?
By the way, when you shared the link it had quotes around it and so the video didn’t show: “https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNG_HLLKPZc”.
I edited it, removing the quotes. I only mention this because I want you to keep posting videos!!! -

Here’s an old-time tune called “Big-eyed Rabbit.” It’s in the Round Peak tradition of Tommy Jarrell. It was filmed by a pond in Kenneth Hahn Park in Los Angeles. The only thing missing was the smell of duck poop 🦆 💩
