Hello fellow Banjo players,
This might seem a really strange thing to ask but i have learnt the tab “man of constant sorrow” from this website (Mike Hedding)
But I am struggling…. I am struggling to find when I am supposed to start playing with the official song. This may be impossible to show over a text chat but i thought i would ask. I have tried all afternoon to sync the song with me playing the banjo but cant figure out when i should start playing?
Might just be the heat in the UK making my brain go to mush but it would be great to have some guidance
Can anyone help?
Sorry for the delay in response.
Are you talking about when the song is starting?
The practice tracks count 1, 2, 3, 4 twice before the rhythm comes in.
You’d play the pickup on the second 2, 3 and 4.
So listen for 1, 2, 3, 4, 1 and then start playing the pickup notes.
If you’re still having trouble can you post a video? It’d be easier to help after hearing you play it to see what’s happening.
– Mike
Hi Mike,
Its when I am trying to play with the origional song
When listening to this when do I start to play?
Do i start to play as soon as the song starts or at 0.14 seconds when the mandolin solo at the beginning ends?
Thank you so much for answering
