Thread: Introduction and tab attempts

    hi, my name's bryce. i bought a cheap rogue mandolin about two weeks ago, with plans to upgrade later once life calmed down and i stopped being on the road so much. strings that came with it snapped while tuning. i replaced them with elixirs. other than that, cant complain. granted, i have absolutely nothing to compare the rogue to.

    anyway, tabbed out (or began to tab out) a couple things and thought i'd share. some of this i'm sure is wrong, i would definitely appreciate corrections or completions.

    It would really be helpful to find a way to notate the timing. I love the Dropkick Murphy's song, the Workers Song.

    Thats true. I will clean up the tabs once I finish them. Seems like everything I do is a work in progress. Yeah, thats a great song.
