quick tale of how wrong I can be.

ages ago, at a Victory Music open mike, the mc was a gal named Barbara. she strummed an autoharp and sang a nice old folk tune. introduces a few acts, and then announces she’s going to play an Irish jig on said autoharp.

I’m thinking, “Sure you are.”🙄

she puts on fingerpicks and proceeds to absolutely crush it. I bruised my chin when my jaw dropped to the table.

now I just wait for folk to play. or rest my chin on my hands.

I asked to write an Irish in D for and this is what it gave me. Points for actually writing a jig, but points taken off because this is a boring piece of music. ABC in the picture description.

Well, I figured I'd toss in a recording as well. This time, me playing one of my fave , the lovely called Banish Misfortune. This was not a professional recording setup and just a quick run-through of the tune, so you get to hear my fingers add a bit of percussion on the fretboard, etc.

I’ve been playing through a couple more jigs on trombone. It’s been fun to try these out. I set the Monaghan Jig in E flat, and it works pretty well in that key for the range on trombone. I’m not really playing them at the speed a fiddler would play them (not even close!), but it’s been a good learning exercise. I’d like to play a couple of slip jigs, too (9/8 time). I think “Rocky Road to Dublin” and “The Butterfly” are pretty common.

A little jig for drilling into 1x2 aluminum box tubing. This should make prototyping for a little faster and more accurate.

Spent the morning in the shop, which mostly consisted of thinking, then building a to drill holes for quarter inch (6mm) dowels which will align the vertices of my 5-sided socket caddy, because I could not think of a way to clamp it such that it would both be symmetrical and held together. There are guides on the back of the jig for alignment. Each of the 5 flat faces, and 5 angled “corners,” had two ½ inch deep holes drilled in them. I can clamp with rubber bands now.

I made a tapering jig for my table saw today. I got tired of making one-off jigs every time I needed to taper a table leg. This one is fully adjustable and first cut on a scrap 2x2 cane out perfect!

In case you are wondering why it has sparkles…it was made from my stash of sacrificial knitting needles.

No…not THAT sort…I just use them as relatively accurately sized shafts when making stuff like jigs to wind wire.

This is how I managed to get those embellishments sized just right in the piece shown at the beginning of this thread.

“Will Ye Go Lassie Go” and “Morrison's Jig” performed by Junior Brother and Saint Sister.

rte.ie/culture/2020/0217/11158

Saint Sister are wonderful musicians, though their style can be a bit too twee for me. Here they push up to that line, but Junior Brother pulls them in a bit, and in any case it helps bring out the toothache-y nostalgia in the song.

Then the trio do a great version of Morrison's.
