Hi Graham, I'm almost three years late in responding but just saw this. I'm nearby and (usually) work about a block from the library. If it's still relevant I'm happy to help, just let me know. Tom

There's a ton of great stuff like that (and I think including some folks from Planxty) on the Transatlantic Sessions, which you can find on You Tube.

I think next year I want to go to Ullapool, that sounds like a heck of a good time.
Play consistently
Learn how to improvise, and get comfortable doing it
Learn songs
Play with others
Develop my ear (thanks for that idea, Ed!)
It's a great idea, I think I'll start one for Christmas 2012. Or, maybe I'll buy now and hope to pay it off by Christmas 2012? That would be more typical of me... :redface:
I also got "The...
Looks great, thanks Nigel!
Gorgeous, Mark, thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas!
On my Santa list would be a Mowry, that Lawrence Smart mandolin from the University of Portland magazine on the Cafe front page, and Jill's new Hilburn that I was admiring from another thread.

This is great, thanks Michael!
Del McCoury, in response to an audience request for Rawhide: "Well, I don't think we'll do that one, but here's a song that uses a lot of the same notes!"
I like the theory discussions and the threads where people are describing specifically how they play certain songs or interesting chord voicings, etc.
I also like the ones where people post videos...
Thanks for posting, I really like those guys.
Thanks John!
This struck me as an odd post, since it was immediately preceded by one that called me a bureaucratic pencil neck geek and a jack booted thug.
If people are interested in CITES, they can read...
You can't be one of those guys, but you can have the RIGHT to be one of those guys.... :whistling:
This has been a great thread, IMHO. Where to next? :mandosmiley:
I'll be interested to hear what others say about the need or use of voicing the flat 7, but for the general A sus I like the 975x (or 9750, but for other sus chords I'm used to omitting the E...
Gorgeous as always, and it means I'm that much closer to getting mine!
(And in the meantime I was sorely tempted by the new blonde F5 that was briefly in the classifieds here....)
I made 1/2 of this switch recently anyway, so might as well finish the job. Please change T Gibson to Tom Gibson.
Thanks!
I like Roland White's Christmas Mandolin book. #It has tab and notation.
Shouldn't the question be "WHY would you classify the Punch Bros?"
Would you (or someone) mind explaining how you learn how to "work from there"? I'm going through Up the Neck now, so I'm learning how to work on the pentatonic scales, etc., but are there good...
I second that. I also like "Edly's Music Theory for Practical People." It explains theory while managing to be funny.
That looks pretty cool, actually. I think I'd keep it like that.
Was it the Lobero (sp)? I saw Del & the Boys there a few (or 7 or 8) years ago, it was a great show and a really neat theater.
As for playing in smaller places, I'm sure he's smart enough to know...
I hadn't thought of it in those terms, but I guess that's among the things I like about Hot Buttered Rum, that the lyrics are contemporary and not so much cliched or affected.
