post a video of yourself

[Clyde Clevenger]

That was just terrible, Frank. Most of us can't even listen that fast, much less play that fast. Makes me want to drop my pick.

Thanks Clyde... Just doing what I do.

That was a tune our fiddle player wrote called "S.O.S."

MMMMM Creamed chip beef on toast. My mom use to make us eat that. I heard the into but didn't pay attention that that was the name of it. That is a good tune!

[Rob Powell]

Here's a fast instrumental... No my best performance, but the only one of this tune on youtube... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ys9hovEwlEQ

LOL....fabulous! Fiddle player is pretty awesome too...

I saw the Country Current at one of the museums at the Smithsonian, Air and Space maybe, in 1984. That is one of the reasons I play today; you all are still playing great music.

Not me playing but this is Aniane Mandolin #6 in the white being played by Matt Raum, at the Minnesota Bluegrass Festival on 10 August. Sweet sound.

Ok what the heck! Here's my first ever attempt at uploading a video on You Tube. This is January Nightmare off Mike Compton/David Long Stomp CD. I just learned this very cool tune and it's not up to speed and I need much more practice but here it is anyway. This is played on my Weber LE.

I agree Clyde. Makes me want to sling my mandolin over my back, take it home, and use it as a pancake flipper!

Great picking and fiddling by ALL. Thanks for sharing that video.

[Mike Bullard]

This may not be my best playing (1989) but it includes my favorite person in the whole wide world..... "My Dad" who is on the fiddle. He passed away five years ago but is still out there on You Tube with his boys.

beethoven wrote 12 "danses allemandes" for small country string bands - here is no. 1, played on mandolin. i took a few liberties with the piece - as did country musicians of day, i would imagine:

If minimalistic recording technology was the key to success for the Blair Witch Project, this one should really scare you to death.

I have no camera, just a mobile phone with a so-called video feature and a limited capacity, that is one of the reasons I played the tune only once (the other reason is that you would switch off after that anyway...)

The mp4 should open in QuickTime without problems.
Have fun, and may you sleep well at night.

That is truly the first time I saw someone play with a pencil - well, kind of.
But I am sure Beethoven would be proud of this version.

Here's Jerusalem Ridge. Guess it sounds a little Celtic

I've got a foto of Brian and me this summer. I'll try to get it uploaded. That's Brian of Labraid mandolins way up in Northern Ontario.

[Jonas]

Here's my version of 'Bonaparte Crossing the Rhine'. Oldtime mandolin for your pleasure.

Dan - good job! It DOES sound a bit 'Celtic.'

Beautiful pickin' Jonas. Love all those double-stops - they really add some color & substance to the simple melodies.
