This is a practice?? Aside from the speaking at the end, it sounds like it could be part of a fun live show that someone taped from the audience.
Which is my way of saying this is a cool performance and I agree with the person at the end: I like the arrangement and think it's pretty good. The fiddle sounds great and I like the little breaks highlighting the bass and percussion.

Great rag feel, everyone's smile comes right through on the recording. The ensemble playing is just tight enough, you need a little rattle in the joints on this stuff to keep it alive, and you nail it.
