Look on the Steam Powered Preservation Society website and find the Hartford String Band show from Athens, GA dated 5-30-97 for an excellent example of what I think Paul is speaking of. Tater was on top of things that night...

No one single pattern really,but still heavy on the down stroke,and in the pocket on the one-but still not a chop(I can hear notes ringing). A shuffle,perhaps? It sounds very "fiddle" to me. I hear oldtime banjo influence in there too,with 7 chords over the 1,and majors over minors. I can't explain it,and I probably don't do it right,but I love it.
