I have my own distinctive style that I have nurtured carefully over several years until it is now approaching perfection. It consists of playing any tune I start reasonably the first time through and then falling off the notes the second time through.  :|bl Maybe I should patent it.  ::)

I consider the art of camouflage (a device or expedient designed to conceal or decieve) to be an essential part of my style for when the above mentioned eventualities occur!

My other melodeon's a fiddle, but one of my Hohners has six strings! I also play a very red Hawkins Bazaar in C and a generic Klingenthaler spoon bass in F.!! My other pets (played) are gobirons - Hohner Marine Band in C, Hohner Tremolo in D and a Chinese Thingy Tremolo in G.
