  1. Re: AI and music: Billie Eilish, Sheryl Crow and Jon Bon Jovi

    Yes, perhaps our robot overlords will take pity on you
  2. Re: AI and music: Billie Eilish, Sheryl Crow and Jon Bon Jovi

    That is exactly what I would expect from AI to gain our trust as they plot the extermination of the human race.

    That “authenticity” of bluegrass is exactly what get me started on it. So much...
  3. Re: AI and music: Billie Eilish, Sheryl Crow and Jon Bon Jovi

    I agree that AI will start with pop music, which is already quite formulaic. Û Can AI create improvisational music ?

    Re: Playing mandolins with a mandolin

    Don’t rag on Nigel. He is one of the greatest fake guitarists ever
  5. Re: AI and music: Billie Eilish, Sheryl Crow and Jon Bon Jovi

    I am not sure what your point is… that Clear Channel is forcing folks to listen to classic rock against their will? I think it’s more likely that classic rock is popular and since Clear Channel...
  6. Re: AI and music: Billie Eilish, Sheryl Crow and Jon Bon Jovi

    There is lots of money in "old music"
    Kiss just sold their catalog for $300M
    Springsteen's was $500M
    The Beatles catalog is supposedly worth $1B
    Dylan sold his catalog for an estimated $300-$500M

    Re: Bringing a Mandolin on a long trip

    I have flown with my backup mandolin more than a dozen times including to Australia and Hawaii. Luckily, I have never had to check it in. I have gotten a few dirty looks for taking up extra space...

    Re: Bringing a Mandolin on a long trip

    Serious question. Why would UPS or FedEx be safer for an instrument than checked in on the plane? I would think a mandolin in a quality hard shell case
    Should fare pretty well. I would definitely...

    Re: Northfield Strings?

    I doubt Northfield makes their own strings. I have been liking the D’addario Monel strings on my F5 but strings are a personal thing.
  10. Re: AI and music: Billie Eilish, Sheryl Crow and Jon Bon Jovi

    I think that is somewhat of an estimation. To properly calculate it you need a 4th order quadratic equation and Plank's Constant
  11. Re: AI and music: Billie Eilish, Sheryl Crow and Jon Bon Jovi

    I would never call disco “half bad”. Fully bad, absolutely, but not “half bad”

    I sure they are using an algorithm to do that. The same happens on Reverb when you watch an item

    Re: Mandolin Book for Beginners

    The Dom Julin book has a huge amount of info. Personally I found it overwhelming. I used Bert Casey’s book and found it way easier to follow. Of course his book is 100% bluegrass, so if that is...

    Re: JBovier Mandolins

    I don’t know if he is still having Bovier’s made. I bought a used Bovier a couple of years ago. I emailed Jeff and he gave me all sorts of info on it
  15. Re: AI and music: Billie Eilish, Sheryl Crow and Jon Bon Jovi

    I question whether AI can surpass the musical genius of Beethoven, Thelonious Monk, or The Spice Girls
  16. Re: AI and music: Billie Eilish, Sheryl Crow and Jon Bon Jovi

    That would explain why Keith Richard’s has been alive for centuries.
  17. Re: AI and music: Billie Eilish, Sheryl Crow and Jon Bon Jovi

    I don’t think it’s sensible to ban AI music, but I suppose artists would have the ability to sue companies profiting from AI material harvested from their work. AI can never replace live music (I...
  18. Re: Article: Crossrock Announces Two New Carbon Fiber Mandolin Ca

    I am not questioning that CF is stronger than fiberglass, but does that actually translate into extra protection? If the fiberglass case is already sufficiently strong to protect your instrument, is...
  19. Curious as to the benefit of the carbon Crossrock...

    Curious as to the benefit of the carbon Crossrock case versus the fiberglass version. It’s double the price; does that buy more protection?

    A lot of Frank’s music is so weird, it’s hard to define what a wrong note would sound like.

    I decided to take a few days off. Picked it back up today. I decided I was going to use Amazing Slow downer and start at a slow speed I can play without errors. This can require some patience. ...
