Hi Dagger...

All tunes which I post to The Mandolin Players In Ireland forum now contain a link to allow you to access mandolin tab and sheet music for the tune in question.
There are a couple of threads...
That's really helpful... I've never had much luck with the advanced search function before but now I know the technique... I'll make sure that I repost the message into the group!

Hi Bill...
I'm afraid I *assumed* that Youtube playlists would be searchable within the playlist itself. A very useful piece of functionality which appears to be absent. Grrrr. Your workaround...
As a follow up to the post above and given that the search feature in the forums section of The Mandolin Cafe is, as I've said before - erm - woeful, I have been experimenting for the past few weeks...
I am giving serious consideration to ceasing work on UPDATING my website at some stage in the near future. My youtube channel and website more or less mirror each other as regards content and the...
Because the search facility at The Mandolin Cafe doesn't seem to work properly, I've created a spreadsheet in Excel which contains links to individual tunes in the Mandolin Players In Ireland Social...
A complete list of all the tunes which have been posted to the group by members, current as at today's date follows (splits over 2 pages).

The group now has well over 200 tunes which I and others have recorded specifically for inclusion in that group's "roster". Here are the tunes which have appeared this week alone, 25/12/23 -...
Thanks, Tate.
I've posted lots more of electric mandolin playing at the social group "Mandolin Players In Ireland". Mostly solos - but a few "arrangements" as above. Why not pop across and check...
Hi there... I think you may have meant to have posted the above in the group itself which can be found here https://www.mandolincafe.com/forum/group.php?groupid=170
The actual thread within the...
Many thanks! Glad you're finding my labours of love useful. Aidan
Sure do, Dagger:
The set of reels was actually "Farewell To Connaught/The Silver Spire". You can download it here: https://crosseyirishmandolin.files.wordpress.com/2019/11/01-dg2.mp3
The jig...
Lots of tunes now at the group as well as a thread showcasing some tremendous performances of trad Irish tunes on mandolin from some of my favourite mandolinists. Glad to have found a place in the...
I've been posting quite prolifically to the Song-A-Week Social Group (https://www.mandolincafe.com/forum/group.php?groupid=67) over the past few weeks. (There's a thread below...). The group is a...

@Bluey. The group no longer operates (if it ever actually did!) on the basis of one tune per week. Members are free to add their takes on any tunes which have been nominated as "official" tunes of...
@Tavy... Hope to maybe see you participate there. Aidan
Good points, John...
And yet, the song-a-week group presents four golden opportunities to the aspiring - or indeed, reasonably accomplished - mandolinist.
The first is a chance to hear...
I wonder how many of those active in this forum are aware of the Song-A-Week Social Group?
(Despite the title, songs feature only very rarely. It's very much focused on tunes.)
The tunes are...
That site has been down for ages...

Thanks, Daniel...
It's pretty much a new project for me, so I'm still experimenting and some tracks will work better than others. I really like the way that using effects can add an element of...
First post in this group and I thought it would be helpful to say a little about myself. For some years now, I've run a website http://TheIrishMandolin.com whose aim is to make Irish traditional...
