Re: Fingers position on cajun accordion

Yes, OMG yes I play like Sharron Shannon..
Gag me...


NO.


Sharon Shannnon uses a huge bit of foam on the bass side. plays stepped keyboards, and has talent and skill I will never have.
She plays like no one.

However, I do play like 90% of the Irish players as to position.

Lock the box.

As one very famous Irish B/C player now living in America says..
Get a shot glass of whiskey, put it on the top of the box and play without spilling a drop.

I never play standing up.

I sit and lock the box. One last thing to worry about.
