Bravo Diane! The kindascratchy sisters old time band is in business!

Yes, we are. And we dress alike. :)

Thanks for the comments everyone.

@Ferret John: I hope you get your mando...and at a bargain price. You'll love it, I'm sure. I love mine and it's so cool to be able to play fiddle tunes right away.

 

 

When the work's all done and the sun's settin' low,

I pull out my fiddle and I rosin up the bow.

Okay..facepalm Well I don't intend to miss parties and projects!  So here is my song. I picked up up last week to refresh.  I was rather cocky because I learned it last year..but oh... yes... pride before a fall. I needed  more time... sigh.  But I am not missing the fun!

I did not want to debut the Fiddlerman Sololist Violin with this type of performance, but here she goes.  She will live up to greatness soon. 

Here name is Noelle, as I got her for Christmas.  

***There is screech about 37 seconds...lol..that is my Hound dog in protest, he is matching my screeches.***

I have had tapes off my violin for a few weeks now so I am struggling.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!! cheerscoffeebunny_pole_dancerviolin_girlbirthday-cakeviolin-studentbananabananabananabananabanana

Nice PickleFish, I am a fan of Louis Armstrong and enjoyed that.

coolpinkone > WOW!!! > you gots the Fiddlerman Soloist > SWEET!!!!!!!!!, and it sounds great!!!! > one of these days I will have a Fiddlerman Viddle.

RosinedUp that was very nice. Are you playing an electric or do you have a pickup on a acoustic running it through an amp? Your sound is nice and has SWEET depth.

Thank you, @StoneDog.  That's my Mendini MV400 (don't laugh) with Helicore strings, with a 99 cent PC mic sitting between the bridge and the fingerboard.  It's on an extension cable going to my laptop, recorded using Audacity.  The only effect I added was reverb using the default reverb settings.  I'm playing by ear and didn't look at a tuner while recording, but I did have a metronome playing through headphones at 80 bpm.

Happy New Year to all!!  I found this rendition of Auld Lange Syne yesterday.  I had to add it...LATE.  

I think I may have figured something out.  When I was recording my first videos and sounding like bag pipes I may have been bowing too hard!!
