Newcastle Waites

A dance Pipe & Bowl has done in the past, but not much lately.  Included for those wishing a sense of completeness .

It has a song:

O me Billy, me constant Billy,

When will I see my Billy again?

When the fish fly o're the mountains

That's when I'll see my Bill again.

Thanks to Michael DeWeil for the comments in the abc file and general good vibes

hey diddle dis

let's go an get pissed

and off goes the insatiable morris

Hey diddle dis

we're already pissed

and off goes the

incapable morris

Here is close to the way I play this tune.  (If I'm way off, someone please tell me.)

This is the tune Pipe and Bowl use for the dance Jug by the Ear.

Got the file from abcnotation.com and edited it to close to what we play. Also added the abc and musicxml files(as MuseScore will output those) for folks who might desire them.

We play this with a bit of a swing, so even though I wrote this with even eighth-notes, it ends up sounding syncopated.

When it’s played for the dance, it’s
AA BBB with slow capers on the 2nd half of the B the 2nd and 3rd times through.
