Thanks Matt for recommending this. Directly went to Dan's website and ordered the t-shirt/CD combo. Great album.

Drew, I couldn't agree with you more. This is high level music, and Michael is so on point. In that Round Rock video you see Bryan Sutton look over at him in what looks to me like awe. I know I...

Just thought I'd share this really cool find at my local music store here in Charleston (Monster Music). All of the Osbourne Brothers band members and also Bill Monroe! What a cool find!

That was a great interview Reid. She is such a monster musician. I mean just mind-blowingly good. Thanks for posting that. The NPR interview was interesting too with Bela, they spoke of Bela...

Thanks for this Chris! I was reading the liner notes over lunch today. This will be a great deep dive into this. I agree, I won't be playing along any time soon, but it is fantastic to listen to. ...

Round Rock is on the album, track #7. Great song as well! Sierra Hull on the mandolin! For anyone reading this, here is the Youtube:

Anyone listening to this yet? David Grisman,Chris Thile, Sam Bush, Sierra Hull all play mandolin on different tracks. Strong album. Highly recommended. I really like Slippery Eel right now.

I didn't get around to doing it this past weekend, but plan on tackling this project this coming one. I ended up buying #42 (the answer to life, the universe, and everything else) directly from Mike...

I just got my copy of Chris' latest album "Laysongs", and in the liner notes it says "Chris' mandolin is set up by Tom Crandall." I do not know this Tom Crandall, but what timely information!

Dan,

Over at David Grisman's Acoustic Disc he has a great choro album by Jacob do Bandolim:

Thanks for the heads up! I purchased this as well. Excited to dive into it. I have recently rewatched the Sam Bush Homespun video on Monroe as well as Ronnie McCourry's DVD as well and completely...

Wow! That is nice looking! I really like the binding color. All that flame on the back! Nice, nice! Play the strings off of it!

I do adore the Pava. Let's see your Morris! I like looking at mandolins just about as much as I like playing them!

We need pictures! I just recently got a Pava, and it dethroned my Weber as my daily player!

So I just got the 2nd half of my "quarantine" MAS this afternoon. I sold a couple of mandolins at the beginning of the lock down and have been really soul searching for what I want to have to play...

Saw this on Twitter. Starts tomorrow (5/21).

Got an email today saying it had been rescheduled to August 21 and 22. Anybody who has been down here in August knows that will be a hot, hot time. I hope they can keep some of the lineup. We'll...

Just got a postponement email from the event. Didn't offer a refund as of yet.

Awesome! I live about 5 miles from this festival, so it's a must do for me. I've never seen Del and the Boys live, so I'm really excited. I'll be on the lookout for you!

Bill,

I have tickets for Friday and Saturday. Bring your mando and we'll pick a few! I'll have a bright yellow Crossrock mando case with me in the general admission area somewhere!

I just ordered that Flatiron from FG. Been eyeing it for a while. Should be here Thursday!

All,

Just listened to a great podcast featuring Sierra Hull for about an hour. The podcast name is "Walls of Time". Highly recommended to get to know this great player and person. I'm just a...
