Playing Fiddle

Part of my reasoning behind starting this fiddle blog is that I want to keep track of what I learn, when. The backwards building thing is a great way to learn songs but if you let too much time lapse between playing them, the edges of memory start to fray.

John had a practice grid he gave me that I modified a bit for my own purposes. I’ll upload it later. Basically, it serves as a reminder to practice tunes you’ve memorized periodically. You can practice them less and less frequently as time goes on, while you practice the newer tunes more often. So I broke my list into a “daily” list and a “weekly list.” But now I’ve got enough tunes in my head that I need a monthly list as well.
