First of all by the strict definition of a recession, we are not in one. Second of all in actuality very few people are negatively affected by a recession. So, that would mean that very few mandolin...

I may not be the best to help answer your question because I am new to the mandolin after many guitar years. I, like you felt it would be easy to learn, but found that not to be the case either. I...

Congrats on the purchase. #I traded a guitar plus some $$$ to Stu at the Folk store a couple of months ago for a KM 1000. #They seem like a pretty good bang for the buck to me.

I have the Levi's 1/2 inch strap on an A with an end pin in the heel of the neck. I works just fine.

I've used the line "I got it as a back up to the good one. Of course now that I have way too many back ups I have trouble selling that line anymore!

The Folk Store is owned by a mandolin player. They have Kentucky s among other things. Give them a call before you go just to be sure that they have what you are looking for. I think they are on...

What's wrong with sandles and black socks? That's big up here in the rainy Pacific Northwest (kidding BTW) http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

I believe it is a sickness

Hmmmm, the occassional dog that wanders in while I am playing, my wife when she is stuck in the room and the once in a while visit from one of my kids or my son and his wife, when I pull out my son's...

I must agree with "incoserv" Danny Boy. I used to sing it to the one dog that would actually stay in the room when I played. He died a few years ago. Now I get misty when ever I play it.

I have a great one I got at a workshop. If you have a fax number I can fax it to you

Harpoon,

1956? Really-amazing; I was 10 years old then! Early into rock and roll I guess. I agree once Elvis got out of the army it was all down hill as far as my appreciation for his music was...

Harpoon,

After Blue Suede Shoes, I followed up with Heart Break Hotel (also on 78) by Elvis of course closely followed by Don't Be Cruel with Hound Dog on the other side! Hmm,,,,,I must be getting...

I have to go with the first record I ever purchased: Blue Suede Shoes by Carl Perkins (on 78rpms too)

I'm 61 and just started. Been playing guitar for a while (10 years or so). Been thinking about starting mandolin for a few years. I am really enjoying it after nearly quitting after a couple of weeks...

I am actually playing it (In My Life in standard tuning (no capo). I am trying to think of the key. Don't have the tab with me, but I think that it is in A because the prevailing chord is A (long A -...

Mandolin:
# As a complete newbie-Angeline the Baker, Old Joe Clark and Whiskey Before Breakfast

Guitar:
# #Some Elizabeth Cotten stuff and fingerstyle Beatles "In My Life" (very difficult to...

Sanchez (also a Spaniard) has been compared to Indurain. He certainly looked good today in the breakaway and in winning the stage.

Does Kevin Bacon fit into this discussion anywhere?

I am a beginning mandolin player and probably an intermediate finger picking guitar player (can also do some rhythm). Does anyone know of a regular jam session that I could come by and make a fool of...

Shoot, I have to go to Oregon this weekend or I would be sure and stop by. Good luck BTW http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif

Seals and Croft-Summer Breeze

When I have a bad session (I don't call it practice-I call it playing), either on the guitar or the mandolin (I am so new to the mandolin, it's usually on the guitar) I just put it away until later...

well..............all my pets have always been various breeds of terriers. We have mainly had Wire Fox Terriers, but have also had Scotties and have a Manchester too. All terrier breeds are great...
