But, if you really want to stretch your little pinky to the high notes, you're welcome to give it a try, but don't expect others to follow ~

I learned this one from Kevin Burke's instructional videos, where he plays a really nice version of it. It's become one of my favorite tunes, very lively and beautiful.

Burke does a drone against the D string in the A part when he goes up to the B-A-B-A bit, which I think sounds fantastic. Give it a try and see how it strikes you.
