Training Log Archive: TheInvisibleLog

Spent much of the weekend sitting in circles like this. Forgot to eat or drink much of Saturday.

Left to right. Tanja, a young classically trained violinist who is switching to fiddle. Lovely tone, will pick up many fiddle styles. In the photo is taking a break on guitar. Ian, extremely accomplished fiddler, with a memorised repertoire that is beyond belief. Can play all day and not repeat himself it seems. Just as accomplished on guitar. Never caught the name of the accordionist. She sat there. Listened to the tune a few times, and then just played by ear. I was envious. Forgotten the other fiddler's name. Plays fiddle and cello in a number of inpromptu bands, and impressed me by playing regularly with her mother, Di, who was missing from this photo. Di plays fiddle and lowland pipes. I was generally the lead in the circle saddlebags. But I learnt much, and my fingers are still sore.

I knew I was full of s**t
