Did he even read the subject heading of this forum? ![:really:](https://s3.pfaffmanager.com/sites/chiffandfipple/original/2X/2/2f6ae4a953e902a0e41edd15880cc1b82dd303ba.gif "really.")

Kinda like this one guitarist who’ll occasionally come to one of the smaller sessions, listen for a while, go get his standard-tuned guitar, plunk himself down, and try to steer us in a more modern and enlightened direction. The pillock plays in a band, so obviously it behooves us to listen well and consider. But then, he’ll play the odd bar song during a break and declare it trad. All we’re lacking is a didge. And Zamphir, too.

We usually pack it in around then unless we’re feeling perverse. Fortunately he doesn’t show up very often.

The more time I spend playing with old timers the less and less patience I have for that kind of nonsense. ![:swear:](https://s3.pfaffmanager.com/sites/chiffandfipple/original/2X/a/a0c7ff8c1630cd90b0039b072c3de85679b5fc5c.gif "swearing")

Feel free to kick him in the arse on my behalf.

all right enough begrudgery

😆

We actually called him on it last night (he didn’t show 'til near closing time, thank goodness); he really didn’t get it. Odd: he was also complaining about how his fiddler was arrogant and didn’t listen. Birds of a feather, I’m thinking.

But next time I’ll hand him his arse and tell him you said I could, Pat. 😆

OK, as you say: no more begrudging.

I tried out a few sets of panflutes at the folk music store where I used to work. They’re pretty enough, but how anyone could play a fast tune on those things is beyond me.
