  1. Re: New Kentucky KM-606 mandolins are in the wild!

  9. Poll: Re: Poll for Song a Week Social Group Week #490

    Why should that be a disparaging comment? I like jigs and reels a lot, but it's not my favorite genre to play on the mandolin. It's just a matter of taste and I admire your playing Jill. Vote...
