Is there anyway - if the family doesn't mind - to get the station inn celebration on this site (U-tube or other video translation) for those of who can't make the visit and pay our respects? ...
I too bought an inexpensive guitar (Estaban Dreadnought) to see if I could play a guitar right handed - originally learned left handed but misfortunes of war changed my approach. Anyway, although...
as noted about quivering hands and cold weather assault on the strings so her goes a thought about other musicians..... I have always wondered how those horn players keep their lips from freezing on...
Yes recording is a great tool - if you don't mind looking at yourself -
Many years ago when I was teaching school, I would tell students getting ready to give a speech to do two things. First:...

From one close behind in years Happy Birthday and keep warm (as possible)
To Butch's family and all his friends
What wonderful tributes to this man. May memories of him bring only joy and happiness to all!
mandolin verse mortage?
I've played the high end instruments (piano, guitar accordion, banjo) and there is a difference in tone, looks, etc. If you are solo, sound is more critical, but as the...
possibly you have already . . . . but checking out some 'glassblowing' web sites, these folks seem to be able to do anything!
What great comments, and all helpful. Having started my brief music career playing the accordion, right hand, left hand, and bellows movement(s) all took practice, but the rewards were worth it. ...
purchased my rover 75 from them about three months ago. They were very pleasant over the phone and with initial follow-up. Have attempted to contact them since, they must be on vacation. Trust your...
We always must remember, in such situations, we give to the living even though we honor those who have passed. Yes, asking the family their requests adds to the memory and revitalization for the...
Is this TAB , standard score or combination of both?? From my own brief experience, having the tune in your head is a great way to weight out the notes, rests, and volume. From what you have...

welcome as well
it is great you have a basic background. I guess I am one of the older folks of the group starting with the accordion at 5 years of age, but have progressed over the last...
thanks for the input. . . yes, just like my new 1967 mustang, I would polish it every day, after the first fender bender . . more time behind the wheel than polishing the tires.
don't ever give up any insturment you have a talent for. i have been playing the accordion for over 50 years, harmonica 40 years, key board and piano for 30 years, guitar for 5 yrs, banjo for 3...
Hi all
regarding the finish. Can one buff out the less than 'polished' areas on a mando (have the "F" style) from hand wear? The mando (Rover 75) is a few months old, just want to get started on...
If you close-off/capo the first fret your are raising all the notes by 1/2 step, second fret 1 step etc., So all the chords you play would be 1/2 step (etc.) higher i.e. "G" is now G#. To add...
try findings strings for a marxophone!
thanks for the button idea. have buckets of old buttons - any pants or jacket is harvested before trashed. will give it a try - like to doodle and whatever. - any thoughts on elk ribs for picks??
one other thought . . . listen to some bluegrass gospel and get the 'feel' for how 'down-home-folk' play worship/church/hymns and Christian songs/music. Remember, praise and worship is (besides...
