It gets brighter when I zoom in,
I should have asked the fiddler for lessons.

@stringy -
GREAT video clip!
It's a good example of the 'Nashville Shuffle' bowing pattern! The fiddler chose wisely & makes the tune special.
Thanks for sharing it!
I like Mitch Reed's tip of saying "I'm Hap-py, You're Hap-py" to help keep this rhythm.
Chris Haigh has good video tutorials for the 3 main/common shuffle bowing patterns for Old Time & Bluegrass. André Brunet has one for the shuffle pattern he uses for Québécois - and I think there's some shuffle bowing used in playing the Blues.
I haven't spent anywhere near enough time on making these patterns so natural that they automatically kick in - your video's a good reminder that this is another area I need to spend more time on.

These are a great band, they usually perform music hall and end of pier music from the victorian and slightly later period, was just walking through manchester as they have a huge holloween festival and came across them on one of the stages, their band varies in numbers depending on other comitments I suppose. They have a double bass player as well as others who perform with them on and off, fiddle player was excellent though I didnt record any of the others they played. They are all from manchester and salford.
