Terry:
Fantastic job! Love those videos.
Your Holsts sound great! Also, good job on the mandolin choice for the three tunes.
To my ears, the asymmetrical Holst has a much darker and bluesier sound (me like very much! ) which I think worked very well for the arrangements of the second & third videos.
Great stuff!

Awesome Terry. Those chords are just brain frying. You could truly crowd your fingertips on a dime. Well done.

Man, I do love some fiddle tunes. That's some great stuff...and yeah, you could probably get a sandwich and some chips before we wind them down. That's just the way it's done.

It ain't old-time if someone doesn't have bibs on! I'm from WVA and there are usually at least two or three when we play.
Terry, that is great! You've got some great mandos and some great chops. The jazz stuff is really something that I would end up playing but I can see how attempting it would make me a better picker.
Hey Woodwizard - really, really enjoyed the music - what a big, full sound you make together. Sounds like a train coming.
I'd pay money to sit and watch you chaps for an hour.

Thank you Darren... you're too kind. The Mountain Boomers ... can make a lot of noise that's for sure.

Also, can anyone recommend a cheap ($100 range) microphone with usb connectivity?
True, I don't have two doctorate degrees. I just like to be a smart ass around my boss by pretending I do.

Ditto on the mandola, Shaun, and cool that you used it on "Old Virginia Reel". Has a tough time with that one. The mandola has been my instrument of choice lately too. I thought I would share this one from a couple of months back, from a South Carolina fiddler named Vernon Riddle. The tune is "Rhubarb".

Great tune and what a lovely setting to be playing in as well!
