Love Me Tender - Elvis Presley

Very cool!

Just downloaded some Yank Rachell. Gotta love the mandolin blues.

Watch Lost with my wife. Okay..okay...I am off to practice.

My brother-in-law gave me a CD of this fictional family from the mountains that then moves to Detroit for their father's job. They play a bunch of motown songs, bluegrass style. Second That...

I have had the same experience that many have listed. That darn bow. I was talking to my daughter's violin instructor about this just the other day. She is a very talented young lady, but she says...

Thanks for tip, Andi.

Me and my mandolin will be sent to the basement to practice today so I don't disturb my middle school aged daughter who spent the last 24-hours locked in at her school. Tonight I will make dinner...

The Del McCoury Band is playing at the Stoughton Opera House (a small town just south of Madison, Wisconsin) in March. Sold out so fast, they added a second night. That felt good. I am glad people...

That is very interesting. I will try the Emaj during our next band practice. I just was working on a mando part for FMB last night. We used it as an intro into I've Just Seen a Face by the...

I found it very interesting that so many of the presenters and award winners mentioned Sir Paul being there. It seemed like a lot of them were very unnerved by their hero sitting front row center,...

Traded a 1996 Flatiron Performer F (plus cash) for a 2007 Gibson F-9. Best trade I ever made!

I was only two years old at the time. And like many on this board have stated, I found Buddy by moving back from the Beatles. Huge influence and huge lost. Last year my wife and I attended a Nancy...

Cary -

Thank you for your response. That is actually why I am looking for those tabs. I rented the Rick James DVD from Netflix, and it didn't come with the tab booklet.

Looking for mandolin tabs for blues songs. Especially, Charlie McCoy's The Lonesome Train That Carried My Gal Away and Joe William's Juanita Stomp. Thanks for any help you can provide.

The one thing I learned about lessons is that not every instructor is the right one for you. I went through three different instructors until I found the one I clicked with. Don't be afriad to try...

I was 40 something. Three mandolins later and now 50 something...still trying to learn.

What we are hearing more and more is a request for "More Cowbell!" We have toyed with the idea of having one on stage to answer the requests. I think that will become this generation's "Free Bird."...

I have been experiencing a completely different problem with Tabledit. When I attempt to print out a song...it spreads the tabs into many multiple pages. As many as ten pages for just one song. Is...

I would most likely be a lower level intermediate. I am currently working on Little Maggie (Dix Bruce), Nine Pound Hammer (Roland White), I'll Fly Away (Jack Tuttle) and Divin' Duck Blues (by Yank...

Thanks for all of your responses. I have already begun to incorporate some of your suggestions. Very helpful. Could I improse a little bit more...do any of you have tabs of your favorite exercises...

Okay...new year. I went and saw/heard a local bluegrass band on Saturday and was amazed at the improvement of this group. Especially the mandolin player. He was much more smoother (and faster)...

Here is shot of my son on guitar and myself from our last gig at Whole Foods. That's right...we play in the cafe at our local Whole Foods. The rest of the band consists of my brother-in-law on bass...
