Play second fiddle ordsprog
It just never occurred to me. My sister sang, and so did my dad. I was the fiddle player, but then Rounder asked me to give it a try and see how it goes. Two hours of fiddle music -- even if you're a fiddle fan -- is a lot. (The singing) could open up a lot of doors.

It seems like we always play second fiddle to some of the other schools around here. That's why this year we'd like to win region and maybe surprise some people.

I like that word, but it doesn't mean anything if you don't play like favorites. In my opinion, the Braves deserve that word. They deserve it more than us. We haven't done anything. Until you win it, you play second fiddle. So hopefully we'll derail them and put ourselves on the map.

[The zoo offers the tactile experience of sliding a bow across the strings of a fiddle, plucking a stand-up bass, pounding a drum, strumming a guitar or blowing into a trumpet.] I think of it as a mini museum, ... We have some basic knowledge of all the instruments. My main instrument is the mountain dulcimer, but we'll have a banjo, fiddle, mandolin, guitars, dulcimers and a washtub and stand-up bass. There will be a wind instrument area and lots of percussion instruments, including a limberjack. That's a board with a dancing man you bounce in time to the music.
