just revisited this one. man alive it's good.

how are you getting that triplet in the A part? The three consecutive same notes at the end of the passage... I can't say as I've tried it banjo-in-hand, but armchairing it here I have no idea how I'd tackle that.

good stuff.

Hey Mark,

Thanks. I couldn't claw the A part, 4th measure smoothly as it was written in the sheet music so I just sort of faked it by playing a bunch of B notes real fast: left hand ring finger frets 2nd string, 11th fret; index finger frets 1rst string, 9th fret - two Bs. Right hand index claws the 2nd string and then the 1rst string and then the thumb gets the 2nd string and then the index gets the first string. I think that's what I do. Let me know if that makes any sense.
