Thanks for posting that! it made my day!

Following in the footsteps of Parker Posey, who learned mandolin for A Mighty Wind.

And she played a Gibson A-50. With a capo!

[dang]

I was super shocked when she reached behind the couch and pulled out a Collings...

[Brandon Sumner]

Nice! "G" & "C" on a Collings "A" Go Christina, too bad she has not kept it up!

[Scott Tichenor]

Plays a hell of a lot better than some of the self-proclaimed experts posting out here.

Snort... back to lurking.

Ouch!

[M.Marmot]

Be polite and courteous at all times?

[Tim2723]

Yeah, Ouch.

[Dan Margolis]

Fun and funny. I hope it sells a few Collings mandolins, because I love that company.

[tkdboyd]

Ouch!

I am used to it, just didn't know he could hear me from two states away!

That link is locking up my computer. You can see the same video by going directly to youtube and avoid all the addon stuff that other link is doing.

Thanks!

You just never know. I had a woman call me earlier today to ask me my phone number.

[drjuliushibbert]

Love her - that was cute.

[Bigtuna]

Jaycat beat me to it. Her rendition even sounds a little more like Junior's to me than the Clash's.

[Loretta Callahan]

Agreed. I love Tiny Tim. Those two would make a fine duet. I've always enjoyed how she's a brilliant "straight man" in her comedic approach. Those who get stuck on her sex appeal ... well .... guess it's all about them at the end of the day.

Sounds a lot like Tiny Tim to me. Needs more cowbell.

How many other women are playing mandolin on mainstream television? Plus, singing and playing at the same time, with good humor, and looking like a million bucks? Even better that she played a Collings.

[Petrus]

When I first read the title for a moment I pictured Christina Aguilera ... my bad.

BTW, what brand of mando is that she's playing?

[MikeEdgerton]

Looks like she's a uke player who has transitioned to mandolin....

It sounded that way to me as well. I will say, she's not unfamiliar with playing a stringed instrument.

She is so sexy.
And Christina too!

[Jeff Budz]

I love Christina, so cool to see her playing a mandolin on TV, and looking beautiful doing it.

[FLATROCK HILL]

She is so sexy.
And Christina too!

Good One!

(And by the way...what is that?... An old Nash/Rambler?)
