    I voted for Bill Cheatem last month. It's a great tune, very melodic, but the B part is kinda hard.

    Whiskey Before Breakfast- great name, fine tune, can be learned in a month pretty easy I think.

    I don't know how the voting list gets put together, but those are my suggestions for starters.

    I've fooled around with Get Up, John a little. I guess it would be cheating for me, since I've already started on it. But it's really a LOT easier than it sounds - probably easier than Cold Frosty Morning. Now, playing it at Ricky Skaggs speed is a different story....

    That one, or some other Monroe tune would be good, I think.

    Hey All,

    Have we done any Irish? How bout old rosin the beau? PDF was at Jay Buckey as well as an mp3. If they are gone I can supply. I been thinking about starting to learn this one. Pretty an not - I don't think - too hard. By then I should have the recording and posting figured out. Otherwise maybe something Civil Warish like the Girl I left behind Me or Ashokan Farewell. Just some thoughts.

    Take Care! -Ed-

    You have to go to Yahoo!Groups Mandolin Project to vote for the September song....looks like Whiskey Before Breakfast is by far the leading contender...

    Happy Pickin'
