INteresting points, thanks people,

I guess coming from a different angle shold make my way of playing English tunes individual anyway....

I've experimenting with differnt rhythm ideas in English trad but it's hard to translate musical ideas from the written page to actually playing it, however ... it's getting me really enthusiastic though for one project i'm involved in at the moment; recording short tutorial videos demonstrating a particular technique with differnt tutors a bit like the Ayepod site but covering a wider range of trad music from the UK and Ireland. Could be  a very useful resource, it think.a x
