Greetings! I thought I would introduce myself here first. I love bluegrass music but I have started on mandolin playing in folk rock setting. Story is: I played bass with freinds on lots of Eagles, Van Morrison, The Band, Dylan, type stuff. We goof off and have a great time. Well, a month or so ago a new freind came over and he is a bass player from way back and came over to jam. Well, I had bought a mandolin just for a trip to Montana and pulled it out and started goofing off. The guys loved it so I have been working on it over the past few weeks... just learning chords and putting in small fills where I can. It's a whole new ballgame and quite frustrating... I can "hear" what I want to do but don't have the muscle memory to just spit it out!
I have lurked here awhile and have gotten some great information... So, wanted to say hello and thanks... see you around the boards. I will have the inevitable "need to upgrade" thread soon I'm sure!
