Welcome, Neil (I assume from CA)... my fellow Californian who plays mandolin! Well, you built aircraft so there is a pretty good chance you are from the Left Coast. Enjoy playing and you will really like this group. Dan
Yes, the other thing is investing in yourself with lessons, even just a couple will get you oriented and will help a lot. Tab for example can be explained much easier with someone. Or/and try Peghead Nation? I seem to remember people in California being friendly enough too, and there are a fair number of festivals there.
Welcome to the mandolin and the Mandolin Cafe. I'm pretty similar to you in terms of playing and goals. There are several members that also share your work background. Hope you have fun with the instrument.

There are two things to aim at in life: first, to get what you want; and, after that, to enjoy it. Only the wisest of mankind achieve the second. Logan Pearsall Smith, 1865 - 1946
