L M W the ongoing saga.

OK I'm wrong. He does play the 5th string in the easy solo and it's tuned to G. So I reckon he puts the string on the capo to go to the 2nd part????

OK he's got the 5th string capoed to A. It's a shame how long it took me to figure that out. the 5th string is never played in the easy solo, that's my excuse. In the 2nd (advanced) it's capoed at A and he also frets it at 12.

(Lonesome Moonlight Waltz con't)

You guys going again this year? I can't afford to go.. I'm so bummed.. it was magical. Hopefully next year.

have fun and let me know how it goes!

hey I see they made it so you can give a gift membership.. mail someone a membership. I asked about that a while back.

"I listened to the banjo with the banjo tab and he's correct.

I wondered who "he" was... I'm a she! My dobro playing rooster might have thrown you off.

This song is friggin' beautiful!!! I'm going to learn the dobro part.. I'm just learning the banjo to teach it to someone else but I love it!!!

in the 2nd (Advanced solo) part, measure 4, the 5th string sure sounds like it's tuned to an A. Am I missing something here? Maybe this is a different tuning?

Like I said I'm not a banjo player!

I'm a dobro player... but I'm working on Lonesome Moonlight Waltz. Am I hearing it wrong or is there an error in the 2nd measure, 2nd note in Part A Easier solo? I also am wondering why he has you play the 1st string open then on the third string when it would be easier to play the 4th string 3rd fret where your finger already is with the Dm chord.

?

I love this college and really hope it doesn't go away.

Morris you around? Anyone around who went to the dobro summit? I got a question about one of the fiddle sessions.

in my previous posting I said that I suck at playing Salt Creek and after I posted it, over to the right in the Ads by Google an ad came up that said: "Suck at Guitar?".

uh, yeah!

I'm just starting on EMD which I've been butchering for quite some time.

Oh I guess my name might give it away. D'oh.

I sure am bad at keeping the strings from muting. I can learn these songs but making them sound unpainful is a different story.

aw yeah I remember I think! sorry I wasn't trying to be anonymous.. thought I was logged in. Yep I loaned you my jump drive, right? Man that summit was fabulous!!! How'd you know who I was?

morris do I know you? It's Barbie from the dobro summit.

man was that heaven???

hey there,

I play dobro. I might not post all that much but I sure am enjoying this bluegrass college. What songs you working on? I'm in the middle of Salt Creek... am just playing it at slow jam pace.. and am getting ready to start on EMD. I don't know why my "avatar" ? isn't showing up. That's a right fancy name for a picture.
