[@fiddlinmike]

I didn’t know Andy Barnard was such a good guitar player.

[@rarebasses]

[@kerryc.7438]

They were tight , I bet they never jammed together either till then!

[@Esrom_music]

Ed helm has clearly been practicing since the office ended

[@mattcsquare]

exactly what I was thinking

[@claymationwaves]

great joke keep em coming till we just cant stand it anymore

[@jesse6541]

Lol, exactly what i thought 🤣

[@oldtimetinfoilhatwearer]

He's not on stage here

[@chaffypappus]

haha, grant taking a picture during david's solo

[@LessThanFaceProductions1]

thats my favorite part!

[@f5mando]

@@LessThanFaceProductions1 Mine, too!

[@f5mando]

I learned it from the 'Hot Dawg' album. This is actually David's arrangement. The original was in Am. Grisman transposed it to Dm and added the middle section to his (now standard jamming fare) arrangement.

[@alexnorth622]

I can't comment ... yet Grisman rules ....

[@CleanHead]

Nard Dawg is rippin it!

[@marfaxa]

what percentage of those onstage are related to Andy Bernard?

[@ensinitas]

ladies and gentlemen, ed helm on guitar!

[@mattcsquare]

sweet, that's all.

[@commontater8630]

Hey LessThanFace, highlight this: request from Galen Brown, 6 months ago -- "I know some of the musicians, but does anyone know the names of all of them?" You have all sorts of space in the Description where you could easily add the info.

[@LessThanFaceProductions1]

Description updated with band members!

[@commontater8630]

@@LessThanFaceProductions1 That's great, much appreciated, thank you! Good for me also to watch the video again. I'd heard Chad Manning at a fiddle festival a couple of years ago (playing Texas swing) and really dug him but didn't recognize him in the video till you added the info.

[@galenbrown3312]

I know some of the musicians, but does anyone know the names of all of them? They did a great job on this tune.

[@Hklbrries]

Updated in comments, Galen Brown.

[@IraHayesIraHayes]

Nobody comes close to Vassar Clement's skills...RIP sir.

[@procarpenter1788]

How do you figure?

[@commontater8630]

Yeah, Vassar's great. Did he ever do Minor Swing? Don't think so.

[@commontater8630]

@Tom L Indeed he did! Hillbilly Jazz, yes yes.. I've been meaning to dig up my copy. Hope I find it....

[@mattross6902]

​@@commontater8630 yes check out hillbilly jazz...Vassar was unhinged on that!

[@commontater8630]

@@mattross6902 Thanks for the reminder, I'll have to get back to the stacks!

[@chrishuwer9463]

Nice, but what they're playing is not minor swing, they play two times the first 8 bars and then something different, so there is not much left of Djangos minor swing.

[@rstarace52]

Ha, guitar player snaps a photo of Grisman Mid song!

[@IraHayesIraHayes]

He's no doubt teaching dawg-head movements...

[@richirvine4519]

The hotel room wrecking Joe Walsh? The rock guitarist? If so I didn't know he could play this kind of music.

[@looniethemoonie5353]

That bass looks like someone sawed off it’s bottom half

[@sireugenecourtney5797]

We need some female musicians in this group.

[@michaelvaladez6570]

What the hell is the flute doing there..NOT.

[@campaignresources]

That was hardly hilarious.

[@archiereece8321]

did Dawg ever get the chance to jam with Jethro Burns?

[@noahdentonmusic]

He really hired guys that Played Like Tony and Mark
