I Love Listening to the Banjo and Fiddle.

[mxz600]

If you like sitting on your porch drinking moonshine and listening to toe tapping, knee slapping, hand clapping good old fashioned music, here you are, enjoy.

"I Am A Man Of Constant Sorry" by the fictitious group "Soggy Bottom Boys".

That clip is from the movie that got the Bluegrass genre started again. Lots of great music in that one. :yes:

A classically trained musician was once asked how he defined "Perfect Pitch"...
"That's easy!", he exclaimed.
"It's when you throw a set of bagpipes into the Town Dump, and it lands on a fiddle!" :roflblack:
Or in this case: a fiddle and a banjo! :joke:

​I've always wondered: Is there a true difference between a fiddle and a violin or is it how they're played?

Yes actually fyi a fiddle is smaller, much like a violin is smaller than a cello or a mandolin to a guitar. The size can attribute to how they are played & tones produced.
