An exercise in off-timing for reels.  I picked "The Maid Behind the Bar" b/c it is literally the most overplayed piece in Irish music, so it's easy to follow and memorize!

When playing, remember, if you ever get lost you can always go back to your up/down basic strokes to reset yourself back into the groove before trying anything special or off-beat.  have fun!

Drum used for this video was My Christian Hedwitschak Coreline Bullet, and I used a wood dowel narrow tipper for single-end play.
