Adding to the dulcimer repertoire. Contains POLL!

I'm trying to add some more songs with the mountain dulcimer to my repertoire. Songs that I have done in the past with this instrument include The Shirt of Lace, (assuming I can find the chords) and The Scarlet Tide, which I first heard in the film Cold Mountain.

So, I'm trying to figure out which one (or two, or three, or half-dozen) songs I should work on next with the dulcimer.

And so, here's a poll!

[Poll #967319]

Can I postpone my answer until late May? Our Big USA Holiday includes a visit to the Blue Ridge Mountains, which I believe is Dulcimer country. After that, I'll have a much better idea. (And if I should be looking out CDs or sheet music for you while in the area, let me know).

PS: why can I only select ONE of the options in part 2 of the poll? Wants lots of clicky things! (And cheese).

You can postpone anything to anytime you want, baybee. I'm always looking for suggestions, so if you are spending some time in the Appalachians, do try to give a listen to some traditional dulcimer playing and see what you like.

Ah, grasshoppah. In life there are choices, and the wise man knows that sometimes there can be only ond. O:-)
