    For my next tune, I'm going to play "Wayfaring Stranger"
    A quarter tone flat and a half a beat behind.

    Mandolin speaking: "Alas, poor Crookedbridge! I knew him, Loyd; a fellow of infinite mandolin picks, of most excellent right hand technique; he hath borne me on his back a thousand times; and now, how abhorred in my sound chamber it is! My tremolo rises at it. Here hung those fingertips that I have kissed I know not how oft. Where be your fiddle tunes now? Your jigs? Your reels? Your flashes of Monroe-esque arpeggios, that were wont to set the G and D strings on a roar?"
