Well, not to keep harping on this theme, but here's one that displays some interesting techniques. I know some people play by ear, but I can't say I've seen this before.

Here's one that's amazing...an older gentleman playing the fiddle with one arm, bow held between his thighs AND it's his right hand he's fingering the notes with! According to one comment he's playing the Rosebud of Avenmore, though I couldn't swear to it, not being familiar with that tune. If you watch to the very end, there's a good close up which shows his technique.

There have been several archived videos removed due to terms of use violation.

I usually put a note after the video if this happens rather than deleting it.

I am particularly pissed off by the Jerry Douglas and John Renbourn videos being removed. Why don't the complaining parties allow a partial viewing, and offer a chance to buy the DVD ?
