  5. Re: Best practices for starting to attend an Irish session

    You already play really well. Excuse the personal observation but I feel that you don't like to make mistakes, I mean you'd rather not play than make a mistake. That's something that will change.

    Re: Mandolin Gender

    I had a kitten that died young, it was very emotional.
    I think the main thing for me was the thought that something didn't have a chance, the lack of fairness. Opportunity.

    #18 [6] might do, why not take the melody and jack it up a third, and another example maybe down to the sixth.

    Inspiring performance Frank.
  10. Re: AI and music: Billie Eilish, Sheryl Crow and Jon Bon Jovi

    There is a better quality 1996 remaster edition if anyone prefers? :))
    But this is how the LP sounded after use.
    Peace and Love!! :cow:

  11. Re: How would I play this? (Would I play this as written?)

    It’s now in second edition 1 jan 2013.

    Same tune here: https://abcnotation.com/tunePage?a=tunearch.org/wiki/Pittengardner%27s_Rant.no-ext/0001
    Good luck! :)
  12. Re: How would I play this? (Would I play this as written?)

    In the past I’ve written out tunes like this (for myself) but it was just a shorthand way of getting more variations, or various harmonised riffs onto just the one page. This may have been a factor,...

    Nice playing Jairo, I like this tune. Can you please post a source for the notation - or tab? :)

    Are Bluegrass festivals organic? :popcorn:
    (The popcorn means it’s a rhetorical question, something to think about, not a debate)

    Personally what I see happening is that people have learned to...
  15. Re: Triplet Pick Direction When Followed by eigth notes

    On fast hornpipes I like: |(DUD) UU DU DU |
    It’s actually the UU that I like because the rhythm is not the same as DU so it gives the triplet a sort of rhythmic ripple afterwards.

    On slower...

    AI transport is woodshedding on autopilot.
    You slide into a beautiful aluminium box in New York with your mandolin and a subscription to the AI mandolin school and by the time you’ve reached San...

    Always good to get different perspectives on triplets, quadruplets, quin… and then make up your own mind. Here’s one:

    Sorry Jim, I really didn’t mean to offend you. It’s just the politics and economics that gets me down.

    Why don’t we have a flower-power icon and green hearts on MandolinCafe?

    Future’s looking bright - the people who will be worse hit by AI are the same people who are most likely to take up playing mandolin. :mandosmiley: :cool:

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

    I can imagine loads of uses for AI that are not recorded.
    Just think of anything that a human does and AI will do it better - if we don’t start to value social interaction, with humans (again).
