Old Time Ensemble Graduation at Paddy O’Splaines

What a great night. Lotsa folks played their hearts out. Two Old Time Ensembles (4 bands), Early Country Ensemble and two banjo classes. And fiddle classes. Jim’s Fiddle I, my Fiddle 3 and Walter’s brand new Fiddle 4: New England

We’ll do it again in 8 weeks. Here’s “Get Aboard the Ship” by Jim, Steve & yours truly.

    This is great! Keep up the good work!
