    Re: Church Praise Band Question

    Thanks for all the responses to my post! I've learned so much from you guys - from your personal experiences to your theories as to what might be going on in the case of my church. Our praise band...

    Re: Church Praise Band Question

    Caleb, good to hear from my fellow metroplex mandolin player! You've described my playing, except at this stage I could only play chords, not add the coloring you've described. I think that's fine...

    Re: Church Praise Band Question

    I'll try this. I've actually asked the leader to email me the music when he sends it to the other band members. He indicated he would, but it hasn't happened. I think I may just show up at a...

    Re: Church Praise Band Question

    Dan, we probably have an average attendance of about 150. I've played 2 or 3 solos with piano accompaniment, which seemed to go over well. Several members have asked why I don't play with the...

    Church Praise Band Question

    I've asked to play mandolin occasionally with our church's praise band. The response I got was that I would be invited to play when they play gospel or bluegrass tunes. I'd like to figure out if...
  8. Re: Back and Forth Between A7 and D, D7 Chords

    I'm now playing "In the Highways" with D, G and A7. I never would have thought of playing a one finger chord, but the one finger D works! What other one finger chords are doable???
  9. Back and Forth Between A7 and D, D7 Chords

    When playing a 2 finger A7 chord, which are your D D7 chords of choice? I'm playing "Open My Eyes, That I May See" in G. One line is A7, D, A7, D7. The 2 finger D is not ideal in this scenario! ...
  10. Re: Jam Etiquette re: Playing Mandolin Chords

    So much to digest here. Sounds like I should observe other mandolin players in the group and possibly have a conversation with one who stands out.

    Thanks for everyone's input. :)
  12. Jam Etiquette re: Playing Mandolin Chords

    There are a number of posts in the Forum regarding jam etiquette; however, scanning a few of them, I don't see any reference to playing chords.

    In recent years I've had the chance to periodically...

    Re: Music Library for Samsung Tablet???

    My own music isn't the problem. In fact, I could take only chord sheets for what I plan to play, which would be very little paper. What I like about the tablet and stand is less to carry and the...

    Re: Music Library for Samsung Tablet???

    Are there ready made chord sheet or sheet music libraries to purchase for common jam music? I tried a Google search, but may not have used the best description.
  19. Re: Treating Trigger Finger - My First Cortisone Injection

    Brad, looks like you've gotten lots of advice here. Just to add my 2 cents, I tried the injection once. It was painful and was not long lasting. My next 2 trigger fingers were treated with...

    Music Library for Samsung Tablet???

    I rarely have the opportunity to play with others, but was able to play at an open jam today. There I was with my music stand and notebooks with paper copies of some stuff I can play. Everyone else...
  21. Re: Looking for Classical Music Recommendations

    I will definitely check into these suggestions! In the meantime, the mention of Marilynn Mair's works reminded me I have a book with a classical piece section. It's Bud Orr's Anthology of Mandolin...
  22. Looking for Classical Music Recommendations

    My teacher has suggested I look for a book of classical pieces. I'm an intermediate player, not quite yet proficient in third position.

    The challenge is finding a collection that's somewhat...

    That was my original thought; however, you guys likely have more experience with this particular issue than my ophthalmologist or the optician I'm thinking about seeing. At this point I'm gathering...

    Eyeglasses for Reading Sheet Music

    My teacher says I need a pair of music reader eyeglasses, as I tend to lean forward during my lessons so I can see the sheet music on her music stand. Who has experience with these glasses and has...
