    Might as well add the You Tube with the song - posted by CT?

    Re: 1924 F-5 Master Model Mandolin

    A video of it being played would be super generous and greatly appreciated. No expectation and not deserved. Just a great way to share with those who can appreciate the find. Take your time. We...

    Re: Avi Avital - Vivaldi

    Excited about this.

    I asked friends to watch out for mandolins when the visited Italy - including Venice. The didn't see anyone playing. That would be disappointing for me. I would have thought...

    Re: Monroe Biopic

    I donated $5 to the IBMM video at a ROMP 3 years ago. I'm surprised that "Powerful" isn't listed with their merchandise. Might belong partly to the TV station? They were really having a hard time...

    Re: Claire Lynch - Wabash Cannonball

    Mark Schatz gets around. I've seen him with Noam Pikelny and then there's that Tiny Desk video of Nickel Creek as well. Very nice.
  8. Brian Oberlin / Capriccio Fanastico

    I thought it would be worth a mention of Brian's recent recording with companion book. Glad I supported the project (through Kickstarter mentioned on the Cafe) and am looking forward to spending...

    Re: Nickel Creek - 2014 Tour Setlist

    Quite pleased with what they can get out of four acoustical instruments - even in comparison to the same songs done on the new album with percussion. Love the Sarah look with the black thick rimmed...

    Re: Loar's Mando/Viola 70321

    One instance of neglect is "too many." That said, I wouldn't assume that every lonely elder necessarily got that way by way of the irresponsibility of others. After seeing off the grandparents and...
  11. Re: Mandolin tuning goes sharp between uses

    My mandolin tends to noticeably go sharp in the Spring and the Fall in the Midwest as Mr. Flynn noted. It's a late winter/spring in northern Illinois so we're just getting started on running the...
  12. Re: Post Your Favorite Bluegrass Video Here Thread

    Special moment to be there in 1991. Love the Finnish kids dancing up front too. From the sound, I would have had to guess Steffey without looking. Thanks for finding.

    Edit: Small world. I...
  13. Re: What mandolins does the LA Phil play in Corigliano Symphony

    Sounds like most conductors would place concern for mandolin quality slightly above that of sewer flute.

    Re: Oh Brother . . .

    The nice part about this far ranging divergence is that it will be over in 20 years - and I'll only be 82.

  17. Re: Is it customary to tip your instructor?

    I don't know of any musical instructor that I've run across since the 1960s for whom it is customary to tip in addition to paying their price.

    It's my mando instructor's business and he sets the...

    Re: The Problem of Rootlessness

    What, there are no very fixed opinions in New York, Paris, Moscow or Caracas? I notice the same thing when I return to my small blue state Midwestern hometown and everywhere else I go. Maybe I...

    Re: Aquire Tickets at Major Venues

    I gave up when I saw prices here at $185 each. But the second set of tour dates announced did not trigger as many speculators, so 2 of us will get tickets and drive 2 hours in an SUV and still save...
  21. Re: Just saw Chris Thile here in Nashville

    Schermerhorn +1 Staff was first rate too.

    For the Bach, I ended up closing my eyes because there was so much available to absorb and appreciate and I was missing some of it by using my brain for...

    Re: I Had A Brush With Greatness

    Grisman was on that cruise last year too - along with Steep Canyon, O'Brien, Thile, McCoury, Della Mae, Dominick Leslie - a bunch of other fine players, and a couple of luthiers. They all avoided me...

    I drove to Nashville from Chicago on 2/18 for Thile. A new 6 inches of snow on top of 40 inches, 19 degrees, and a car or semi in the ditch for every mile of the first 90 miles. Worn out and...

    Re: wow factor Gordon Neidinger

    Yeah, for whatever reason, the right hand is what I noticed first. But both hands fit the mandolin nicely.
