Shove That Pigs Foot a Little Further in the Fire

This is mainly just to show off the John Hartford signature low D strings that I just put on my backup banjo… But also it was really fun to make, and I hope y’all enjoy it!!

Those John Hartford signature low D strings were some of the best I ever heard!
I’m sorry I missed the “happy dance,” but “Shove That Pigs Foot A Little Further in the Fire” is one of those songs that always makes me cry, and I couldn’t see through my tears.
That’s a sign of a well-played song!:+1:

That was great Gunnar, Love the sound of clawhammer and you performed it wonderfully. Are you back at your old place with your family or are you still in the states? Almost looks like the same room that you used to always do your videos in.

Thanks y’all!!

is this in reference to the alternating whackamole choreography? It’s not quite at the end…

I’m still in the states, I live here now for the foreseeable future

You definitely should, they’re totally worth it!!
