I've worked this one up from Bb... Its an Ottawa Valley fiddle standard I pulled out a set list from Nikki Engstrom of Stanley and Grimm.
One hell of tune, its a corker... and a real challenge to pull off at speed

I was looking at this tab and wonder if the repeats are in the wrong place as it does not seem to sound right! I quite liked the tune so did a bit of work on it but not sure if it is correct as I don't know the tune.

I wouldn't doubt the repeats aren't right, things come down the way as an ABC and errors stack up, sometimes the organization is goofy.
A bit more work on it too... It ties are left hand technique, slide, hammer, pulls etc... I use the occasional up pick too. ( I ... up pick with the index)
I've been liking good extension of the the left hand to work up the tune as a gesture, and try to play the tune without arrangement.
the riff on the B part is fun... I don't mean "pull offs" when I mean pull off at speed... it can be a challenging technical tune.
Don't be put off by the changes in the arrangement, its the same notes, just in an alternate place, Its where I arrive at, doesn't mean you have to too.

Yeah, this is a great tune, a nice discovery for me, and thanks to celtic trad for posting information and a fine version. And thanks to trahciul for posting the sheet music. I play it CH, in double C tuning but low, on a Vega2.
