i always see people saying that jigs should be played DUD-DUD and i really don't find it natural, my hand just keeps going down and up all the time, can't i just play these tunes like DUD-UDU? when played with good rhythm it sounds pretty much the same and i don't understand why people always say that it can't be played that way...
***** ill try to learn it but for now i can only use it for rhythm strumming like on guitar, when i want to play a complex melody on mandolin with it i just forget to DUD-DUD or to actually use my left hand... the same like with playing guitar and singing at once - impossible for me if i need to play melody, not just chords
Have to love solid rythm :)
