My original post seems to have disappeared but:
It was interesting to hear Jody's comments in reply to my post mentioning Rob's repetition of the same finger on one string in one of his videos. I was amazed to see that Rob made it look and sound so easy and was interested to see if others stuck to the "traditional" way or used repeats with the same finger as Rob does.
The fact that Rob made it sound and look so smooth "his way" made me question whether I should stick to what I was taught, using alternate fingering wherever possible (with the exception of repeats using the thumb) or concentrate on trying a "new" (to me, that is) method. Van Eps was insistent that HIS "alternating" way was the only way to get the desired speed, but Rob has disproved that.
I agree with Marc S that on many occasions the fingering on the score just does not seem to work in a way that the fingers tell you they should...so perhaps a rethink for me, is in order.
Oh what fun classic style banjo playing is... always something to worry about! :-)
