very cool.. I'm gonna have to check out the jaybuckey site... first I've ever seen that one mentioned.

Month 2 is out! Link is in my signature

Got my eyes on the prize now, I'm trying to get my life to work out to let me take lessons soon. I'll definitely get to start in May, sooner if I can get a...

Concert in the Park

I just looked at the Concert in the Park schedule... Sam Bush July 11 and June (aw, fiddlesticks, forgot the date now) Sometime in June The Elders and the Wilders. I've heard the Elders are good, I...

COOL! I'm gonna go put it on the calendar right now so I can go this year.... errr... uhh... hang on a second. DANG!!!

Man! wish I could go! Is there ever anything like this here in KC?

419eater.com is the best place to get a good laugh at the expense of these scamming morons. It's amazing how many different places they infiltrate. I know fellow pinball collectors who took up a...

very nice... but maybe recommend that your camera guy either uses the tripod or moves it out of the way http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

stumbled on this video today. It's a pretty amatuer interview, but still, I watched it all.

I'm admittedly a huge Split Lip fan but found it...

email sent! thanks!

Good golly! I thought pick acquisition was supposed to be inexpensive and I keep seeing more and more expensive picks! These picks are almost as expensive as my first mando! But I want to try them!...

This may just be simply because I'm still new at this, but I've noticed lately that my left hand fingers seem to be really REALLY stiff. But it's not the sore fingers I'm concerned about, it's the...

I got my tri point Ultexes (Ultexii?) in the mail yesterday. On my way in from the mailbox, I stopped in the garage, grabbed a piece of 100 grit sand paper and in about 2 minutes had the tip filed...

I'm in the same boat. I'd love to find someone local to me (I'm in Kansas City) that wouldn't mind me hanging around and learning. I don't want to buy a kit and have to muddle through it on my own....

Curious: Actually, the file I tried to upload I had loaded into fireworks and resized down to 98K. But when I submitted the reply, it didn't show up. So I just linked it to my photobucket site. The...

I saw this thread from work, had to come home and snap a pic of my pup with my mando JUST for this thread! http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

That's Gentleman and he's...

another shot in the arm that could be coming up soon would be The Clark Brothers from the TV show The Next Great American Band. #They featured both mando and dobro and blew the competition away. #I...

I love that you posted images of both the standard notation as well as the tab on a staff and not just a text version of the tab. I wish there was a place where this type of stuff was stored in a...

back to what I know... pinball

many pinball machines come from bars and from the outside aren't usually too bad, but when you open them up, good God almighty they can be foul. Look at the stuff at...

suite! I just ordered a dozen. I figure worst case, they're bigger like the Dawgs, maybe they'll stay put in my hand better. And if I still don't like them, I'll have plenty to practice reshaping...

well of course they don't make them any more... obviously that must have been what attracted me to them. I just had an internal sense that they were no longer available and probably difficult to...

so where does one get the bigger ultex and what is the best way to reshape it? How do you get a good bevel on it?

I am a HUGE Split Lip Rayfield fan. But these guys didn't do much for me. When I saw their myspace page I wanted to like them. I just couldn't handle the drums. I think they fit into the category of...

I don't know that I want something BIGGER than a Dawg. I think they're just about the right size, just too thick for my tastes. And that dunlop looks like all three points are the same as the point...

I was using a Dunlop Ultex 1.14mm and then got a handful of Dawgs. I was using the shoulder of the Ultex and really liked the feel and sound. The problem I have with the Ultex is the size. I wish it...
