Mostly just charts in Roman numerals. I might make notes for specific sets about arrangements, or capo position, but usually keep it pretty basic!

Chord book 2 coming in hot!!!! First chord book took roughly 2 1/2 years to fill up. Hopefully the new composition style will prevent important pages from falling out πŸ™ƒ

Overwhelmed with joy and gratitude after this weekend. Two years ago I attended my first Flurry with my car packed with all my belongings, ready to move from Ithaca to Boston. I don't really have the words to describe all my feelings so please enjoy this video of musicians trying to do math

Is it advisable to record a fiddle part for a demo you’re working on when you don’t play the fiddle? Nope. Do I do it anyways and screech out out of tune ideas for parts? Yup.

if you're appalled by what's happening and think socialism is cool, it's worthwhile to consider if "liberal" is a good self-identifier going forward. ideologically, liberals got us here and liberals are offering nothing to stop what is happening.
