[QUOTE=Old Growth;1781405]I don't know if other folks have ever reached this point in their playing but i have basically concluded I can't play Bluegrass. It may be a lack of skill, dedication or inclination but dang if i can't really pull it off.
Yeah, I'm starting to feel the same way. I don't think I'll ever get up to those speeds and fluidity...
Re: post a video of yourself
Thanks TT..i guess we enjoy what we can do and keep on push'in:)

Hi had a chance to play this newly constructed Gatti #7 this morning. It probably could use some time to adjust to the local climate but it seems to have a nice woody tone right off the bat.

This is my first attempt at a collage video. The piece is an original composition.

Re: post a video of yourself
Very nice CB. I've never used my thumb when strumming. I'll have to give it a try. Was that second tune "Bluegrass Stomp"? Sounds a lot like it.
Re: post a video of yourself
hey Lucas, I just play on the couch so I'm in no volume competition (ha) and I like the mellow tone of flesh and second tune was kinda sorta the stomp, I was just diddling around

Our praise team is working from home these days-- I am playing my 1912 Gibson A Oval. We each make a video to a click track so it is quite a trick to coordinate. Thanks for your time MC friends!

I just broke a string so I went on and changed them all, oh my goodness wish I could figure out an easier way and wish I had someone closer than 500 miles (Nashville) that could do a good setup and offer any suggestions even tho I'd be too ashamed to play around a real mandolin player...

CBFrench, You’re the real deal man! You have touch, style and timing. You do that Pava justice!

You are way too kind, I’m just learning a little as I go but I do like the Pava. I wanted a mandolin that was not bright with a nice full tone

Played a socially distanced gig over the weekend at a friend's local farm. Felt good to be in front of folks and out in the Vermont air.

Thanks so much. We certainly take a few liberties on the melody (especially the 2nd or 3rd time through), but its keeps us on our toes.

Just me, my 10 string mandolin and my firebowl just after 9.30 last night. The tune is Mull Of The Mountains.
