The genesis of LAS? (Lamp Acquisition Syndrome).
Hope you find some folks to pick with. You can leave your winter clothes in ND! It is hot and humid in LA (Lower Alabama). I met a fiddle player who passed through here in helicopter flight school...
Hi Michael,
I am not from the Mobile area, but maybe this will help. You might try a store in Stapleton, AL, which is not far from Mobile. It is called Picker's Paradise. They have a website:...
I was fortunate enough to see Junior Sisk and Rambler's Choice in Auburn, Alabama at the Bluegrass on the Plains Festival last weekend. Junior's group was the only group all weekend that did "the...
I didn't get to play it, but got to see and hear it last month at Mike Compton's school in North Alabama. It looks and sounds great. You do a good job picking it too Wilbur. It is a beaut!
One of the first records my parents bought for me was a 45 rpm record - "King of the Road" by Roger Miller. 1965, and I was six years old.
+1 on Breaking Grass. Saw them at Bluegrass on the Plains in Auburn last Summer. They are great - bought one of their cd's to learn some of their stuff. I also just thought about Three on a String...
P.S. Let us know how it turns out.

Heard Nickel Creek play "Cold Frosty Morning" and was hooked instantly.
I thought sure you were referring to "Severe Mandolin Acquisition Syndrome". I have heard of MAS, but not SMAS, and I am pretty sure I have SMAS.
I am pretty much addicted too. I check out the forum every night. I have been an "owner" for about a year and a half. I don't consider myself a "player" yet, but boy it is fun. The folks on here...
Hey Hatter,
Congrats on your upcoming wedding, and good luck. Not sure about Huntsville, but I heard Clear Blue Sky at the Kentuck Festival in Tuscaloosa last Fall. I think they are from the...
Good luck with your recovery Ken. I have been following your work for some tome now, and one of your distressed "F's" is on my bucket list. Maybe one day my playing will justify one. For what it is...
We were fortunate to hear the Roys in Auburn, Alabama earlier this year. Their show was great. Lee did a songwriter's workshop that weekend. He is down to earth and as helpful and nice a person as...
I am in! Thanks for the chance to win!
Count me as a happy BC owner. My kids gave me one for Father's Day (they had a subtle hint). I was skeptical. I didn't think a pick could make much difference. After playing my CT 50 for a few...
I was looking to upgrade from my starter "A" to an "F" a couple of months ago, and after talking to Lee Roy at a festival about JBovier mandos, I contacted Jeff directly. He was very helpful and...
Saw Mr. Skaggs and KY Thunder a few months ago. Super show. Afterwards I bought a cd. He autographed the cd, and I got a picture with him. He was very gracious and as nice as could be. I liked...
Read about them on The Café!:)
One of my favorite albums: The Tony Rice Unit - Manzanita. I like every song, great mando by Mr. Bush and Mr. Skaggs...
