OK - so..... here's where I am atm with the Kesh Jig.... still messing about with it, and still not 100% happy - but - as ever - it's just a measure of where I am - and I know where I want to go with it.... feature=youtu.be
I also well appreciate that it kind of "breaks" the triplet-feel of a traditional jig - but - know what - I kind of like the outcome ! LOL If we all played it exactly the same - well - there would be no point.... hahahaha. Enjoy my efforts !
I seriously recommend not copying my mistakes. D'oh -
Please make your own, different mistakes, and help us all learn :-)





















Thank you @coolpinkone - as I said elsewhere - I had such a bad time last Sunday on SJ, I felt so bad, not to mention, embarrassed, I HAD to put a stake-in-the-ground just to say - "this is really where I am atm with this tune"
Thank you for listening !

Exactly. Becomes more interesting if everyone makes it their own. Of course, only to a certain extent. Needs to be the same piece.
Ha ! You have no idea how many times something I'm playing "morphs" into a different tune ! It has become especially difficult recently with that old Scottish tune "Comin' thru' the Rye" with it's renewed popularity thanks to Bear McCreary's fine arrangement in the Outlander series - https://www.youtube.com/watch?.....6tVclFi4a8
Note for note it is virtually identical to one of the tunes used for Auld Lang Syne. The only difference is in the timing....... If I actually manage to disambiguate them when playing and keep both tunes clean - they make a nice little two-piece set to play one after the other - but when one changes into the other halfway through that's not so good !!!!
