Tell us something.: "Tell us something" hits me a bit like someone asking me to tell a joke. I can always think of a hundred of them until someone asks me for one. You know how it is. Right now, I can't think of "something" to tell you. But I have to use at least 100 characters to inform you of that.

Hello, Chiffers. I try to stop in here at least every five years or so, and I'm about due.

Anybody know the name of this tune? If I can't find it, I'll have to write it out for our fiddle player, and who has the time?

Looks like it's called "The Schooner I'm alone". Lyrics and chords here and here. Don't see the dots though.

Best wishes.

I play several flutes, many whistles, many guitars, bouzouki, banjo, and own way too many pedals.
I could open a music store if I didn't live in the back woods of Pennsylvania.
