Student\ Student's Journey - All I want is you (Banjo)
Posted by: bluedanbob

Video duration: 136 seconds

I was becoming bored with simply filming myself at my webcam playing, so I'm going to do things differently from here on. I decided to simply record myself playing, and throw it over some other visuals. In this case, photos from my adventure to washington and oregon.

Nothing new here, really, it's more or less the same arrangement I just played in E on the gourd on my 5 string tuned to G, but this time I'm wearing my crown beanie.

Video duration: 226 seconds

Here's a quick rendition of Whiskey in the Jar. Someday soon maybe I ought to try adding in some musical breaks; although when I get started it's hard to bring the action to a halt.

Students Journey - New River Train Students Journey - New River Train
Posted by: bluedanbob

Video duration: 115 seconds

So the video is blue now. That's because I'm in a new period, like Picasso.
See, this is the first song I posted that shows me breaking out of the quarter note - two eighth note rhythm successfully. That's right, I've thrown in a LICK. Or, at least a hammer on, and kept rhythm. I thought it a nice landmark, so I've broken out of black and white.

Student\ Student's Journey - Cluck Old Hen
Posted by: bluedanbob

Video duration: 51 seconds

Here's my first go at Cluck old Hen in G modal tuning (I went ahead and retuned since my pinky isn't developed enough to play the licks)
to play this song you'll need to tune your second string up to C. That's all Mountain modal, or Sawmill, tuning is. But it's so dark, lonely, and haunting.

Student\ Student's Journey - Skip to my Lou
Posted by: bluedanbob

Video duration: 54 seconds

I was sitting around practicing the frailing strum on open G for about twenty minutes when I decided I needed a break. I thought, what better than skip to my lou? How can you play the banjo and NOT know that one?
