Tunes played in November 2012

I apologize for the late update here; I’ve been taking a college class for the first time in 15 years this quarter, and it’s consumed a lot of my attention. Class is over now, though, and I’ll try to get some tunes transcribed for the jam next week ASAP.

This is what was on the whiteboard at the end of the jam in November:

G Tunes:

  • Ida Red
  • Barlow Knife
  • Billy Wilson
  • Big Scioto
  • Wildwood Flower
  • Boogerman

A Tunes:

  • Grey Eagle
  • Sandy Boys
  • Old Joe Clark
  • Red Haired Boy
  • Boatman

D Tunes:

  • Whiskey Before Breakfast
  • Saint Anne’s Reel
  • Johnny Don’t Get Drunk
  • Angelina (presumable Angeline the Baker?)
  • Over the Waterfall
  • Bonaparte’s Retreat
  • Green Willis?
  • Arkansas Traveler (erroneously marked as an A tune)

G Modal:

  • Cluck Old Hen
  • Shady Grove

I’ve updated the tune list with titles and keys of tunes, and will start going through and filling in notation and tab as I can. (These keys might not be what we actually played; I think there’s some blur between A and G tunes due to banjo tuning to G and then capo-ing up to A.)

We had an email sign up sheet in November, but I’m not quite sure where that went. If I find it, I’ll get email out to folks. You can sign yourself up for the email lists (one for announcements, one for discussion) at lists.slowerthandirt.org.
