>>127980318ive played old time fiddle for 20 something years but i wish this genre would just die already. the new style of ot fiddling is souless trash, worse than bluegrass. ot festival culture is also sociopathic

>>127981932cult of celebrity filled with wannabe social climbers. we've gotten to the point where if you dont play a tune like how tatiana hargreaves or bruce molsky played it people are looking at you funny like "thats not how the tune goes"
>>127984438makes sense, online discussion is really heavy about names for some reason. thankfully the jams near me are all old people who learned tunes their own way and not through some online course
>>127984699>all old peopleah thats the one exception, if you can find a group that isnt overrun with little-big-shots then you can drink from the true vine. all the old timers here are dead, wah.

>>127984966interesting there seems to be an overlap between autists and encylopedic knowledge of fiddle tunes.lol
