    Man, I love how Compton's fingers just glide around that fretboard like they're covered with Crisco.

    On the topic of Merlefest and mando mandia, who is going to be from this community? We should have a designated meeting place so we can put some faces with the names....

    I will be there, hanging out at the Plaza, helping host the stage with Tut Taylor.
    Drop by and see us, bring an instrument because it is an open mic. Looking forward to
    meeting you all. I will have my mandolin cafe ball cap on.

    Mando Mania is always one of the highlights at MF for me. It has become so popular that you really need to take in the full act prior to get a decent seat.

    This year's line-up on Saturday at 3:15 pm will include: Tony Williamson, Sam Bush,Sierra Hull, Alex Johnstone, Rebecca Lovell, Mike Compton, and Darin Aldridge.
