    Re: When we all get to heaven

    In my experience most pastors don't like being hidden behind the easel.....

    Just kidding of course. Good job.
  2. Re: Why did you choose the mandolin over another instrument?

    I had enjoyed the way David Lindley played violin on Jackson Browns records and thought the mandolin would be the bridge between what I was already playing on guitar. But I got hooked and never...

    Re: Triple Mandolin Stands?

    I have one of the Hercules stands also. I should say HAD. Some of the plastic parts melted on me and I'm not sure why. It's been in my basement music room so it hasn't been exposed to extreme heat....

    Re: Alive Inside

    One of my favorite experiences was playing at a nursing home and watching a 90+ lady get up in her walker and dance while we played the Folsom Prison Blues. It doesn't get any better than that.

    I gotta say it. The "Fugitive" Kimbell has been returned. A good reason to name this mandolin "Doc" or "Richard".

    And "A Mandolin in the Wilderness" must have been added before now. Did I miss it?

    Looking for classical recordings

    I have an autistic son who loves Butch Baldassari's Cantabile: Duets for Mandolin and Guitar. A lot of recordings { full orchestras } are too busy for his ears and I'm guessing that he's attracted to...

    Re: Have you named your mandolin?

    My Kimble F-5 arrived on my doorstep on Dec 7th. So I named it "Pearl" as in Pearl Harbor. About a week later I remembered that I had named my Brentrup A "Minnie" since it was built in the city I was...

    Re: An Evening with The Andy Statman Trio

    I've always lusted after Wills 2 pointers. Easily one of the best looking mandolins out there.But I thought he had stopped making them. I guess not.

    Re: Dobro Mandolin

    I don't play in a bluegrass band - but a few of our songs have a reggae rhythm that my National RM-1 is perfect on. Play around with it and see how it fits into what you do. I think you'll be...

    Re: Bush for Senator

    America isn't ready to vote for a mandolin player yet. A guitar player - sure - but a mando player? We're at least 20 years away from that day.

    Well from what I see of the songs listed in the book - it's really just a collection of old songs. "Will the Circle be Unbroken" is not really a "bluegrass song" even though a lot of bluegrass bands...
