Nah, your not coming off rude or anything. I understand the distinction. I play an open back, no picks, frail ect.. The opposite of 3 finger Scruggs. My brain just wants to call everything that has a fiddle and a banjo bluegrass.

Yeah I mean Old-Time. Right now im working on a 5 string double C tab for Whiskey in the Jar. There was this Blaze Foley - Election Day cover I have down pretty well. I dunno not learning anything in particular. Im just trying to get clawhammer down rn. Mine just. i dunno it doesn't sound quite right.

I just want to get used to playing with people rn. Hopefully get some help developing that nice clawhammer action. Im sure ill get it.

love the history of songs. Universal Literacy is pretty new relative to how long humans have been around. I figured there would be some good oral tradition from the antebellum through reconstruction period. I havent picked up or tried a Civil War song yet. I like the idea of it though, kind of like history you can interact with.
