Is it me, or does that thing only have three strings? And kudos on the duct tape. We don't see nearly enough instruments on the 'Cafe adorned with duct tape!

Dang! Well, we can't have the ladies of Katzenjammer DQ'ed because of a mere technicality. I believe they are likely "with mandolin," it's just that the mandolin happens to be in a case where we can't see it.
Or, we can just say, "what a unique and interesting 3-string, balalika tuned mandolin she's playing there!"
If I call my guitar my "axe," does that mean my mandolin is my hatchet?

I think all the girls in Katzenjammer can play mandolin.

Studies have shown that at least three out of four Katzenjammers play mandolin.

Here's 4 of the 9 ladies who went to the Monroe Style Mandolin Camp several weeks ago in Owensboro, KY. L to R: myself, Susie Seace, Marnie Sorrick and Beth Tibbitts.
Very nice - thanks for sharing! All f-models too ...

It's not a mandolin--it's a Russian domra (домра)--which has just three strings. They sound kind of like single-string mandolins and they are usually played with a plectrum, so that's good enough for me. Very cool instruments. Tuned EAD. There is a four-string variant that uses mandolin tuning.

Tamara Volskaya is a four-string domra virtuoso. She uses mandolin/violin tuning.
You can hear clips of her amazing playing here.

Nice one, Lee!!

well no it's not because there is no lead on the mandolin.. the structure is way off,
and any banjo picker that tunes in the middle of playing is just unacceptable.

I wonder why the women at the Monroe Camp were all sat on the floor, is that a woman thing ?

I think we need to just stay away from comments like this.
Agreed.
There are two things to aim at in life: first, to get what you want; and, after that, to enjoy it. Only the wisest of mankind achieve the second. Logan Pearsall Smith, 1865 - 1946

It was in between classes at the time and the lobby was full and all of us "gentlemen" (TIC) were occupying the chairs. I know that a few minutes earlier later or sooner I might have been in the camera's line of sight because I was there admiring Tracey's new Jade mando. I am taking your question at face value, cause I don't know what a "woman thing" is.
??
I think Dave's question is a fairly innocent one. I can see no harm or insult intended.
IE: is sitting on the floor to play a pass time or indeed a playing position the female members of the mandolin comunity care to take part in or indeed prefer?.
I for one 'prefer' to sit on a chair but I have been known to play sitting on the floor (I dont find it to comfortable), each to there own.
Woman thing/Man thing - a chosen preference for either a man or woman I would suppose.
Perhaps were just been a bit over sensitive due to other recent threads (understandably)
I think what surprises me the most about the above quoted post is that Dave Hanson is a moderator over at www.mandolin.org.uk......

Let's not make too much of this, basically a lame attempt at a joke IMO.
As I am fond of saying at gigs when one of my lame attempts at a joke falls flat, "That's why I'm a musician, folks, not a comedian." And then that gets a laugh.
