New mandolin video: the slip jig “A Kid on the Mountain.” I learned it from banjo player John Rough in the late 1980s and have played it ever since. A great session tune with a moody journey between Aeolian and Ionian modes

When I tried to upload this video of two slip jigs to MakerTube, it took all night to "transcode". I thought the process was broken, but it eventually finished. I'm not sure what caused the delay.

Here's a pair of "slip jigs" - tunes in 9/8 time:

Choreography notated for a contra dance called Waxmyrtle. At the top is a note saying "16 bar slip jig contra - empty space added for formatting." Each section A1, A2, B1, B2 has 12 beats of choreography and then a final four beat simply notated "it's a slip jig," 'it's still a slip jig," "i think you see where this is going," and "slip jiiiiiig"
"Falshoods programmers believe about contra dances"

“The Butterfly”, my favorite slipjig. I hope to one day be able to do it justice!
