I'm bummed we have to wait longer but it will be even more worth the wait by the time we get it! Terry, I think "earth shaking" will be an understatement. To see these guys perform independently is amazing but to watch them perform together is over the top! Completely undescribable- one of those "you have to be there" kind of things.
Don't pass up an opportunity to see them in concert if you can! For those who can't... hopefully the DVD will show you what I mean!
New countdown...Six more days!!!
Five days left...
I would have to say there is some excitement here...lol!
Look up (to see whats comin down)
Four More Days!
I ordered the new CD from Amazon, along with 01 Bytes 10 Cordas.
I was tonight in his concert in Nanterre, near Paris (France) with his quintet and as a guest (for the first time !) the jazz violin player and composer Didier Lockwood, it was REALLY GREAT, especially when HdH played alone Adios Nonino, and when they had a duo, accompanying each other on their turn (Didier with an electronic device on his violin tuning it 2 octaves lower, Hamilton of course only with his fifth strings mando). They will redo this experiment in the future (just as Hamilton did with Mike).
Unfortunately he had not yet the new CD with Mike at this concert, but he will provide some for the Lunel Festival (south of France) at the end of the month...
Pietro Bono
Sounds like an amazing show. I'm hoping that they play somewhere near me so I can see them too!
Larry
Right, amazing as usual !
I have been to about 10-12 concerts by HdH since 2001-2002, in soloperformance, in duo with his brother or with Mike, in trio, quartet, quintet, in acoustic in small jazz clubs or amplified in big halls, and everytime it is fantastic.
In France mandolin players call him extraterrestrial...

I think I'll get this from Elderly when it comes out, along with the tone guard and wegen m150s I want to try out. Should be quite a purchase. Woohoo!
Garnet Bruell
I like my tone guard (art deco style) for my Terris F. The Wegen picks are great too. I'm hoping to get Tony to make a Draleon Royale model when he can find some free time.Originally Posted by (fwoompf @ Oct. 14 2006, 04:24)

LARRY DATA, where did you find those Symposium pics?!
They say Ruffo's name on them but on the Symposium site they only have the 2005 pix up. I've seen Maria's pics but hers have her name on them. So how did you get Ruffo's!? Is there a link I don't know about?!
I found them surfing for mando pics. I emailed Stephen about getting copies and he refered me to Maria. I'll see if she has them because they would be great blown up as posters or just large prints.LARRY DATA, where did you find those Symposium pics?!

Wow! Thanks for posting. I love the chord movement on that B section of Blackberry. Can't wait to get my copy.
Perry
The new CD is now available from CD Baby. They ship within 24 hrs.
Amazon still shows a delay in shipping of up to 3 wks (that will change soon).
Barnes & Noble will ship in 2-3 days.

Bestbuy shipped mine today woohooo!
From the samples on CDBaby this one is going to live in my cd player for awhile.
[QUOTE]I'm hoping to get Tony to make a Draleon Royale model when he can find some free time.
Larry, you're breaking my heart. Why not just get a Draleon Royale from the designer, manufacturer? (That's me by the way).
Gordon
ps. I'm just yanking your chain, I'm actually flattered that you would be impressed enough to even consider having it repro'd. I'm going to send one out on a mandocafe roadtrip in the next month or so, wanna try it for a couple of days? :>
Gordon, Larry already owns a prototype Royale! He's refering to having Tony (Pires) make a custom Tone-gard.
Larry is a true mando pioneer, and connoisseur of fine things!
Thanks Ted, I hope I didn't give anyone the wrong impression. I posted pics of my Draleon Prototype here. By the way, I'm still playing it everyday!
I talked to Tony about having a tone-guard made, but he's been very busy keeping up with his regular orders.
He'll need a tracing of the instrument and some measurements then everyone will be able to order one for their Royale.
Larry
Sorry for the topic diversion...I can't wait for the new CD to arrive!
I just got it today. It's a good thing they called it "New Words" because I just don't have any to explain how good this album is. It's devestatingly awesome.
