This was recorded at Broad and Pine - last

the fiddles. Also, I was particularly
energized after the 3 mile walk.

with how it turned out ;-)

Ferko String Band Routine for 2010
Great day for Ferko - we came in 2nd in the
parade and first in music performance.
You can see me at about 1:25 in the "Banjo
and Accordian" solo. Then, at 4:17, you can actually
see and hear the two
violins - a very sweet sound indeed!
