Well that day has finally come upon me. Live and alone (well OK, My instructor will be playing harmony) tomorrow evening at the music school. I have been asked if it was OK to provide a short bio for the audience, and a mention of the great community and resources from Fiddlerman.com will be included. 

 

I hope to have a video of my short time on stage and will share here.

The main piece will be Paddy on the Turnpike, as it is a Jam, the other pieces are up in the air. I will bring: My Dear Sweetheart, Ol'Joe Clark, The Dancing Bear, and STJ. Not sure what the other fiddle players have in mind.

Well I survived, and not an ounce of nerves once it all started. I did, however, have an overwhelming urge to keep driving as I went to the hall. I'm glad I went first. The kids were great. Why does the tune sound so great with the fiddle under my chin, but not so great when on video? I did post this tune some where in the past either here or on violaman.com so I should be able to compare...
