Here is what I put together for Fiddlerman's contest. Take comfort in knowing that you won't hate "Old Joe Clark" by the end of the video nearly as much as I do right now. I won't be playing that one again for a couple of months at least.

Thanks, y'all. It was fun to put together.

Here's a link for "Old Joe Clark."

I'm playing it an octave higher than the sheet music as well as introducing my own variations. I'm also playing it a bit slower than normal because I'm not good enough to play fast yet.

Very nice! Thank you for sharing.

I think it's very nice of you to expand FM's Site.

@ CJ

It doesn't look like you made any spelling or punctuation errors. Of course, rule number one of internet posting is that if you make a comment about spelling or grammar then you must also make a mistake. amuse
