That's pretty hypnotic tune... which I've never heard before, but enjoyed. You should do a vid so we can see how's it's played. Cheers!

thanks. I think the Hypnotic quality comes from the tuning (eCGCD) It's amazing what a diffrence in sound you get by dropping that 5th string from g to e. little birdie also sounds great in this tuning. If I ever get a video camera I'll post some vids. I believe someone has a video of this tune being played on a fretless banjo on youtube might want to check it out.
