        Hey, I’ve been playing a little over a year but only since March with Jason’s program. I am just starting the immediate level lessons. I have played piano and sung for many years so I read music and struggle with ear training.
        You?

              Review Tobin’s Jig this afternoon and recorded it with the low fiddle play-along track. Love those and the full track. Thanks, Jason, for making learning to fiddle fun.

              Anyone open to a group practice session? I have been playing about a year. Working on module 1.10. I’m in eastern time zone. Any afternoon/evening time works for me except Wednesday.

                I’m just coming into the friends section and, yes, I would love a group practice session I really miss the jam group I was in and would like to show some sort of improvement when we can resume.

                  I’m eastern time zone and for the most part any time is good. My kids have a Covid ankle bracelet on me. A bit of preplanning would probably be best.

                          🤣. They have me on lockdown so I won’t get Covid. It’s my crazy term for their protectiveness.

                              Understood. My parents are just getting over COVID at 88 and 84. It’s not fun. We thought we might lose them both but are making the road to recovery. We are blessed.

                                  I’m glad they’re on the mend. I know numerous people who have died with it. I’m 85 and have weathered a lot but have no desire to make that one of the list. So I tolerate the imaginary ankle bracelet with a smile.

                          Did you know that you can change the speed of videos?

                          Here’s how.

                          Hover the cursor over the settings wheel.
                          You’ll see a popup window.

                            For some reason I am unable to get to this lesson, the Mary’s version or the OBS pattern lesson from here or on Instagram. The links here take me to the home page for signing up for Fiddlehed…. I want to learn this tune but I need to start with the Bile them Cabbage, Mary’s and/or the basic OBS pattern. What should I do?
