So, i don't know banjos at all, this is all just conjecture, but I could understand if an instrument would go out of tune going from hot to cold, but if you give it time to "settle" to the new temperature, and then tune it, wouldn't it be fine?
Just because there's snow doesn't mean it's that cold out. There was a big storm in my area a few weeks ago, tons of snow on the ground still, yet it hit 70° this week. It doesn't all melt, just gets really icy.
This is sadly accurate but this isn’t even remotely true bluegrass, that shit had me dancing as a baby. To this day though, no fucking clue what they’re saying
@@gsaucegaming6635 It's honestly probably like that because everyone was dying of poverty and the common cold constantly during the time it was developed
I love the singing, it reminds me of old dudes like Ewan MacColl and Woody Guthrie. We need more of this in music today: trying to sound human and like yourself, not trying to sound "perfect".

I discovered this song through another banjo player on UA-cam. I was a smoker for a while and when I was sure I would stop breathing, I remember hearing this song over and over in my head.
@@brain4154 This is not an original song from the creator of this video. There is an older version by Bert Hare and I’m sure it’s not an original song of his. I think the version I’ve heard is from a field recording. Since it’s a folk song, it’s probably older than the field recording.

I almost wanna say this plays like that Batzorig fellow from the steppes of Mongolia. If little songs could pass through, not even with internet, the world would be a much more peaceful place.
ive gotten this in my recommended 3 times now, and every other time i skipped it. Im very happy i watched it this time, it was a lovely song and very pleasant to the ears, thank you.
It's funny how it all comes full circle. About 100 to 150 years ago, Scottish and Irish immigrants laid the foundation for American bluegrass. A few generations later, the tunes they wrote are now being played by people from their home countries. I hope they're happy that their contributions are still remembered, but maybe they're also a little upset that Britain still exists.
It’s the New Year’s for me, and this is a very good song to listen to. I may have had a few drinks but I will still look into this as a sober mind. Love you bro. 2:29

Alright, here are the actual lyrics for the version that he's playing here
On one summer eve as the sun was setting
The wind blew soft and cold
A young man laid
On a bed of fever and
Tears stood in his eyes
I’m dying, mother, I’m surely dying
And hell is my awful doom
Take my hand and
Press it tight for my heart is sad with gloom
One morning fell as I left the meeting
The spirit bid me pray
Not tonight but
Next week only I must go and dance in the gate
I’m dying, mother, I’m surely dying
And hell is my awful doom
Take my hand and
Press it tight for my heart is sad with gloom
After this I’ll get converted
And be a Christian bride
But alas too late
I have seen the folly of saying not tonight
I’m dying, mother, I’m surely dying
And hell is my awful doom
Take my hand and
Press it tight for my heart is sad with gloom
