I used to love Ian Dury's music. Alas, I don't think he played a concertina.

Damage to metal end plate on my Marcus G/D Anglo
JimR replied to lachenal74693's topic in Instrument Construction & Repair
Perhaps your concertina caught on 'something' while putting it away. -
Pythagoras, do you know about https://thesession.org/ ?
-
Dang! I was going to bid on that (but I forgot).

This page at concertina.com, http://www.concertina.com/english/#butler-the-concertina-tutor has lots of good info, including Frank Butler's good English tutor. Search youtube for English concertina. You will find several good players there.

This may not help, but I saw a video today of two young guys doing pushups. One guy did a bunch of pushups every day, the other guy did a bunch of pushups every other day, resting on the off days. At the end the guy who rested on off days was able to do more pushups. Perhaps you could design a similar regimen in your playing?

Is concertina only for folk English or Irish music?
JimR replied to gerardo1000's topic in General Concertina Discussion
Let us not forget CNet's own Musik Bohmer playing old blues in a new way. -
Playing concertina in space!
JimR replied to SIMON GABRIELOW's topic in General Concertina Discussion
In space no one can hear you scream, and, as there is no air in space, no one can hear your concertina either! -
Alan, I have to ask. Why the yellow dot on the right side?

When is the music recognisably the composers?
JimR replied to SIMON GABRIELOW's topic in General Concertina Discussion
Have you ever watched "Name That Tune" and see someone get the tune one one note? -

Beware, though, that the Button Box will be closing its retail store at the end of March, so if you are looking, look now.

Is it just me? The top row looks a long way from the hand rest.

I just visited the Button Box website, as I occasionally do, and noticed this. Shop now!

And now something completely different....
JimR replied to conzertino's topic in General Concertina Discussion
I have a CD made by Stefan. Unusual for concertina perhaps, but the music is familiar to this American's ears. Well done, Stefan. -
No music in my family, 😒

One minor comment: The date in the URL and shown under World Concertina Day International Concert is January 6, 2022. It looks, to me, to be a mis-print, or that I've already missed it. Big deal? Certainly not, but I noticed it. Someone else may and walk away thinking they'd missed it. Maybe? Or just me?
