    Best of luck, Ben! When I lived in Austin in the early 90s, Lockhart was a frequent getaway designation for me. Worked on a David Halley video in that sweet little town, too. Love the Tim Kerr art on...

    Live from Here is no more

    Thile just posted on FB. American Public Media will no longer be producing the show.

    I'm sad.

    Re: Thile at Carnegie May 8

    It was a great finish to a great residency. I came down from Albany for all five shows.

    "Tomorrow is a Long Time." Just blissful.

    Thile at Carnegie May 8

    Does anyone know for certain what the order is for Thile at Carnegie Hall, May 8.

    Is it Punch Bros first; Nickel Creek second, or the other way around.

    Thx.

    Re: Chris Thile at Carnegie Hall 11/28/18

    I saw the first show from the fifth row and some of the second (I had to catch a train home) from the balcony.

    Humbling. Just humbling.

    Re: Mandolin Face

    I've been caught grunting on tape, and kind of moaning melodies that having nothing to do with what I'm playing. And my feet do weird things, too. What up with that!?

    I just love that he played so simply. This is nice.

    Re: The Weber Diamondback Octar

    J.C.,

    I'm so jealous. I had my eye on that, but was gathering funds. When I could finally do it, it was gone, at a lower price that I could have afforded a few weeks before!

    Best,
    Michael

    Re: Flatiron OM as mandocello?

    That's the width on mine.

    I want to thank all, as always, for the knowledge. I think I'm going to leave this fine instrument as is!

    Flatiron OM as mandocello?

    Hi All,

    I have an 80s Flatiron 3K Octave Mandolin, with 23 3/8 scale. Can I safely string this as a mandocello? Has anyone tried this with good results? If so, thoughts on best gauges?

    Thank...
