Haaaaa!  Where the hell is Terry?!?!  I'm hoping he hasn't become a permanent fixture of one of the local pubs as a result of the holidays!

Normally when you have an accidental it carries over to only the notes in the same bar. Second rule is that the accidentals carry if there is a "tie".
There is a difference between a tie and slur though they look the same.
To avoid confusion, though I added some in this case, accidentals which are correct but can be misread are placed in parentheses to make sure that you are doing them. IOW, they don't need to be written out but it insures that the player understands which note is to be played.
Now I am sure that I have confused everyone that much more.

@Fred - Now you see why I didn't do that one right away. LOL
Obviously it took me a bit more time to do that one.
I guess this really means that Terry has to come right?

Really wish I could come to this however, I already spent 2 months Rock Climbing at Smith Rock State Park in central Oregon this past summer so a Second trip out west from Ohio is definitely out of the question.

 

And if you all are having Shine and Beer why not bring in Some Irish Whiskey and Guinness To boot! :D

Oh Terry I hope the crude is behind you!

I so want to make it to the jam ... I do have the time off work.... But some circumstances beyond my control have me in a bind where I probably won't make it... I will however keep my fingers crossed to see if a way opens up.

Ps Terry your missives on Facebook keep me laughing out loud all the time.

Pss. Next time I am buying my ticket early and nothing or no person will get in my way of meeting with the fine folks here at Fiddlerman.com.

Naska!  I thought you said you would surely make it, lol; I told you I have a cello here for you to play!

Terry; I forgot how sick you were old man; didn't mean to kick you while you were down.  Yeah, you had a really nasty bout of it; the intravenous whiskey probably helped kick that bug's butt.

Alma, plan on the Second Annual SoCal Fiddlerman bbq/fiddle jam; you can bring your cat!

Vince, there will be no shortage of Irish Whiskey or Guinness, lol, it's musical lube!

The time is approaching :-) Only 15 days before Michael and my departure.
I'm getting anxious. Haven't been to California in ages.

For those working on The Pink Panther music, you might want to watch this for inspiration. Yes, that's who you think it is on the left making the Bobby McFerrin-like sound effects.

:)

 

Here's Fiddlerman's sheet music again: https://fiddlerman.com/wp-cont.....anther.pdf

LOL,

Those were the good old days. @VinceXXX - about 15 - 20 years ago I think. The language is actually Swedish but this was from a Danish TV show. The contestants had to guess what music was being played. Not in this case of course. This would have been way too easy. Here is a piece we played as part of the competition.
