    Default Happy holidays guys! (mandolin content included)

    Hey! I typically don't post these on the cafe, but it's holiday time, and I thought you may enjoy. Here's a little arrangement of You're A Mean One Mr. Grinch.

    Thanks!

    I used Adobe Premiere Pro, but there are a bunch of video applications out there that can do this.

    Nice.

    Thanks. You made my Christmas Eve happier! My grandchildren liked it, too!

    Way Good Alex. I really like the way the mandolin voice is sort of skip jumping with the other instruments through the melody towards the end. Merry Christmas my fellow mandolinist and to all a good night.

    Great Video. All parts turned out nicely. I really love the Mandolin (obviously) in particular. As a fellow Blonde Collings MF owner its good to see one out there put to good use. Plus your shirt is fantastic! not only is it festive but it matches too! I need to get me one of those

    I'm so glad everyone dug it! Maybe I'll start posting these here more often. I've been doing one every Friday for a while now (This is #35.) Maybe I'll post them in the blog section like David.
