Today's one of those days that I love youtube. This is really great all around. Love the playing and singing, beautiful scenery and the deer (or elk?) at the end make for a nice finish. Thanks!
If you are ever in Salida, Colorado do yourself a favor and go to the Red Hen Bakery! They use a wood fire stove outside and their bread and pastry are mind blowingly good!!!!!!! I can’t wait to visit again someday.
I cannot believe you were in my neck of the woods as i was discovering you. I feel so cheated! I wouldve fangirled out so maybe its for the best. If you ever travel that same stretch try june. Its beautiful and verdent and that jagged mountain range you passed looks like it could be in a calendar!
@etanbenami I hate to say it, but I don't remember- we just kind of threw it together in the moment. But, yeah, it does sound like g tuning with a capo.
I know it's late, but you can play this out of open A tuning, or you can run the low string all the way down to be an octave below the A string, ie aAAC#E
Great question- I never thought of the connection before! It's similar, and likely related, except the thumb in slapping is more on the down part of a down/up figure, and in frailing it's more on upbeats and doesn't knock the string down to the fingerboard- it's more of a cross-wise and somewhat upward motion. But it's another way of getting at a similar groove that seems to suggest the presence of Africanisms in our (often Euro American) bodies and habits.
Wow, I'm jealous. You guys are hotter than heck, and tight as well. Question: It looks like you're playing in D out of a G tuning, but there's more going on at the 5th fret than I'd expect. I'm used to hearing Reuben's Train (closely related) out of an open D tuning. Can you offer any help to the perplexed midnight banjo players out here?
It's good, but makes me sad that fiddler lady ain't throwin' in the sound of train whistles Also, why does everybody wear black these days? Musta been some crazy great person died?
I searched and searched UA-cam until I could remember the name of this tune...bingo!! LOVE IT!♡☆♡
I love how at the end, that last perfect note sounds... and then the wind just takes it all away.
That's the realest deal you'll ever find...thanks for the music!
I never tire of this tune and pretty much anything Tim does. I tell everbody i know about Tim cuase its awesome and im drunk.
I don't ever get tired of that tune...never.
wonderful .... I can't keep still my legs listening it
you are gifted Tim ..... with great aptitudes and spirit
Mr. Eriksen, if I could deer hunt with you playing in the background then I wouldn't do anything else in life! :)
Tim...Once again you and the two great musicians with you hit it out of the park!!!
Today's one of those days that I love youtube. This is really great all around. Love the playing and singing, beautiful scenery and the deer (or elk?) at the end make for a nice finish. Thanks!
Absolutely fantastic!
As good as it gets! Never thought I'd see anyone top Riley's version. Thanks for sharing!
Makes me get up and dance flatfoot-in my bare feet-something my Native Paiute Grandpa showed me long ago-puts a smile on your face for sure!
You guys make beautiful music together. :)

Caught the Salida show that night. Best part was when they ditched that damned sound system. Then we actually got to hear the real thing.
I know it's late, but you can play this out of open A tuning, or you can run the low string all the way down to be an octave below the A string, ie aAAC#E
Great stuff!
@RealMadMartigan It's an Ome of some kind. I wish I could tell you the details, but it was borrowed...
We Love Salida!!
deer was like.....right on brother.
Spectacular!
thank you very much!
Tim, u should be recognized as the world's cultural heritage by the UN!
Betse Ellis!
!!! Awesome !!!
I've watched this video so many times I think I'm hooked on this song for sure! Curious what tuning you're using on the banjo though?
On Ensemble: Taiko & Throat Singing, mix with am i born to die. first song.
yes imdrunk.
Right there's, three of a kind that'l beat any full house !
Haha! Thank you. I thought of making a joke about a fight with the Olson twins, but I couldn't think of anything very amusing.
Does sound somewhat the same tune as Reubens Train
Related to the tune 'rastabout'
Grinnnnnn!😊
+Marvin The Maniacal Dancing Ape
He plays the Sacred Harp too. ;)
great music, great musicians, great singer, really nice deer ( look good enough to eat lol)
Wow - Yeah!
great
This has to be one of my favorite videos of yours. Just curious, are you slapping your thumb like you would on a bass guitar?
Great question- I never thought of the connection before! It's similar, and likely related, except the thumb in slapping is more on the down part of a down/up figure, and in frailing it's more on upbeats and doesn't knock the string down to the fingerboard- it's more of a cross-wise and somewhat upward motion. But it's another way of getting at a similar groove that seems to suggest the presence of Africanisms in our (often Euro American) bodies and habits.
@@TimEriksenMusicVideo I want to learn Banjo, especially fretless after hearing you play. Tuning my mexican strat to open will have to do for now.
Who is that fiddler??
jep

Is this a different version of "in the pines?"
No, but there's definitely some similarity!
You know, maybe you're particular about mastering or maybe paying different players would be challenging, but I would pay to download this as a MP3.
.. cooles Video!
If this don't get your toe tappin', there's something quite wrong with you, and I recommend you see yourself a doctor.
is this the ozarks?
Salida Colorado, headwaters of the Arkansas River
Hot. Just hot . ! . Tim is that a Bob Flesher peghead ?/ YOurs Guy
It's good, but makes me sad that fiddler lady ain't throwin' in the sound of train whistles
Also, why does everybody wear black these days? Musta been some crazy great person died?
