I started bought my first mandolin in the mid 70's because I listened to you play with the dead. I stopped for a long time but picked it up about again 8 years ago.
I feel I owe you many happy...

I notice the pick also. standard technique is uncomfortable for me with standard size mando picks. I have some work to do there. On a side note I stopped by the Music Emporium in Lexington Mass [nice...

Please change mine to Mark Sullivan. am "qwerty" easy to type, was pseudomando [one of my emails is "pseudographica"] but saw some one had one similar. Might as well be me.

Please change mine to Mark S.
Was qwerty [easy to type] before that pseudomando [one of my older email addresses is pseudographica] but saw there was a pseudomando man and I have a hard enough time...

Usually I play in a storefront mission [2-3 times a week that is]. I might be considered an intermediate beginner mandolin player. Though I own a sport coat or two, I don't own a suit. I generally...

The gent in the backrow, almost directly behind her has a similar look, but his fingers are in a different approach for what may be same position.

Sandys music in central square [in the independant nation of cambridge] has been around forever. Good experience there if you can find parking -

Nice post Luv2 - I am 55 and have been an orphan for almost 20 yrs, thats the way it feels even for some of us "grownups". What does one say? Don't be afraid of the tears, or the valley of the...

I have one. Play it with a very forgiving audience 3 times a week. Maybe, someday------

Laura, at the Cool Mandolin Company, has a program for kids. She may be able to use it.

I have a Michael Kelly which the pro at "The Music Emporium" said was a good beginners instrument [great shop by the way]. It will probably be my one and only for my lifetime. I gave the 2 hundred...

Hey Jim just think of how much money you can make when you sue all the people who love to give unasked for medical advice! Just think, a few sentemces from you and they can cure all your ailments...

Last night I "practiced" for about a half an hour. Tonight I may play from 1 to 2 hours with a guitarist at an open mic in a storefront mission to the homeless, depending if anyone else shows up to...

"I ain't been far, but I've been around"

Reminds me of "Tom Dooley" I always liked the sound & mood of the song but the murder part creeped me out. I heard of a guy who once said in a gospel meeting years ago "Since I got saved I never...

Its a nice problem to have!

I play gospel almost exclusively at a storefront mission. I tried Amzing Grace last night with a different rhythm and it worked for most of the song but I goofed it up several times. Most of the...

I've heard that with age you either get more understanding or more crotchity "bitter or better". From the responses here, it doesn't seem that being involved in music changes that. Talking it through...

I got an arm rest & matching guard from Doug,
nice stuff, good service.

Its a long shot, but if you play gospel music, I play at at a store front mission in Lowell,Mass, about 30 miles north of Boston. It would be Friday night. I work in south boston, so I could pick you...

I tried using the grip dip used on tool handles, always felt gummy & did not stay on. No help but its a bunny trail you don't have to go down.

"RIPPLE" - Dawg with the Grateful Dead, early 70's - stopped playing for about 30 yrs. Picked it up again a couple of years ago.

I'm about a 44" and the XL did not swim on me. They are good shirts & don't shrink much that I remember.

Beautiful!
