The more you know how to play simple tunes the better you will be trying to play the hard stuff. Why practice keys that will take some time to play. I have to get a new bow and I'm gonna get that with credit but being back in the states and even with a good job it's going to be a bit before we can really get on our feet.Įric, You are new and I know it. However, money is a bit tight right now for me to. Thanks Peggy I've seen his videos online as well on youtube, he's a pretty good fiddle player. Thanks for the pointers and links to the tracks.Įdited by - EricBluegrassFiddle on 03:39:57ĮricBluegrassFiddle - Posted - : 03:42:38 I did take some stabs at Jerusalem Ridge and others but I've put that and a few other tunes on the backburner until further down the road. I actually have backed off on alot of tunes, lately I play alot of easy tunes like "Little Liza Jane" and a few others, although I like o improve alot in B, Bflat C and other keys in diff positions, mainly kinda bluesy stuff to train my ear a bit more. I'm thinking about running my computer through a guitar amp with the jam tracks to try and make it sound, as close as possible, to a real jam so I can play without headphones.what do you guys think? I'd like to simulate the jam situation at home as best I could, maybe it's playing through ear phones that getting me. The last jam, the mandolin player didn't chop and the timing was a little rough and alot of songs I didn't know so maybe these jam tracks got me a bit spoiled because the beat is always so constant? I think the issue is that I seem to be able to play well when I'm at home with the backing tracks but at the jam, I don't know if I am sub-conciously nervous or what, but I feel I have a hard time following on some stuff. Their are some jams but across the state far away from me and I can't get out like I used too for long escapades cause I have my wife and kids and can't leave them at home alone all the time while I run out and jam all over Florida LOL.Ĭan anyone recommend some good Bluegrass jam tracks for a decent price that I could get my hands on? I hope it can help me improve as a player? Or, should I just practice with a straight metronome?ĮricBluegrassFiddle - Posted - : 03:36:57 I was informed that a once good Bluegrass jam every other Saturday in Cassia Florida has been over-run by keyboards drums and electric guitars? GULP It seems theirs not as much good BG in my part of Florida as their used to be. i Sure don't want it in the music.ĭo you know any good ones for Bluegrass that I could buy. I got enough outside of music to keep me depressed. its Always that old slow and melancholy crap that puts me to sleep. I've never understood why they can't get up their own jam and why they have to Horne in on the Oldtimers? Just leave us alone. get A good Oldtime jam going and next thing you know the country singer/songwriter troubadours come out of the woodwork and take over. Quote:Here's a good site with free backup tracks / Well anyway, there's my infomercial for bgdaddy, but I'm sure there are others here who can direct you to tracks.ill be watching too, because playing to tracks is the next best thing to having real pickers right there in your house with you! I might join up again.no money, no time.but if I can get enough of either one of them I'm tempted to get back on there. Lessons go with the tracks, very thorough lessons.he discusses all this and even stuff like making maple syrup or whatever on the forums.I asked a question once and he answered with a specific video.something ge does often. The tracks you can download or just use them from his site. He has tracks galore on there.mostly bluegrass, some gospel, a few Celtic, some old time, and a few that would cross categories. But I keep thinking if things get better around here I might rejoin and get the lifetime membership. I couldn't renew when my time ran up because of problems requiring money plus two essentials. I really enjoyed my year there, learning things way over my head.lol. If you can get the money, you could join up with. I think the mandolin people online throw tracks around to practice with.I've seen a few here and there over the years.mando bluegrass people are pretty serious and they usually have good practice tracks.however, I sure can't direct to just now I've come across a few. It's probably not exactly what you want, though. If you've looked at, it's mostly old time tracks, but overlaps a few bluegrass standards. Yuuuuuuuuugh.keyboards, drum and electric guitars.what's this world coming to? Gee whiz.
