I've decided that this year, 2013, is the year that I am going to learn some new music.
First on the list is "River's Jig" from Firefly. It's an actual trad tune, and how lucky am I that one of my dear's already knew the tune and taught it to me! I'm a very happy camper about this.
Second on the list is Music from Tolkein. I have a book of Tolkein's songs and they are so lovely. I think they will translate really well to fiddle as well as voice. I'm going to pick 3 tunes/songs to work on.
Third on the list are 10 tunes (generic Celtic) that people keep asking me to play.
Fourth on the list are Gypsy tunes. I am not going to go crazy (hahahh, too late ;>). I'm going to pick 4 tunes and work on them.
I think the next step will be to write down the names of the tunes/songs.... I guess I'd best do that before I pack all the books before we actually get on the road to AZRF, huh...
