On the little I've worked out so far, I've been using the fifth string although not near as much as in 2/4 time. I'm finding that I don't use it for rhythm but as a filler in long melody runs. Today I printed out sheet music for a couple of jigs. I guess I'll try to stumble through them later. I don't know any jigs so I don't have them running in my head.

I will check Perlman out in a few minutes.

Thanks. Anyone else?
