post a video of yourself

**mandolindude04** · Jan-04-2015, 4:56pm

Thank you MiG-19. This is my very first You Tube recording, and was mainly trying out this new Lumix camera I bought my wife for Christmas. I downloaded this video editor software, and then found the old movie countdown clip at the beginning when I googled it. There are of course modern video intros, but I'm old enough to remember the educational films of the fiftes and sixties that were 16mm and had the countdown....Sort of dating myself! I had initially posted this on my Face Book page, and had some positive feedback, so I thought, what the heck, post it on Mandolin Café where all the real mandolin players are, and even the ones who make a living playing eight strings! Glad you liked it, and Happy New Year to you sir!

TheCoop, I figure if relationships go bad, I still have my little epi Mandolin....Been there done that myself. Hang in there, and have a Happy New Year!

Great job mandolindude04. Loved it. Now I just need to find the tabs to that song. Thanks for sharing.

Here's a video of my new Colongs MT. Tune is "Hewlett" by O'Carolan.

VERY nice job, Caleb! You've already learned where the sweet spot is on that MT.

This is an arrangement for solo mandolin of Joni Mitchell's "Woodstock", from a performance at the Classical Mandolin Society of America convention in Portland this past October.

Mike and Ruby: thank you. I see from my earlier post that I need to learn to spell COLLINGS. Ha.

Disclaimer: my strings were (are) dead and need to be changed, been lazy and didn't anticipate video taping, but oh well!....not too bad...

**Pete Jenner** · Jan-17-2015, 3:28am

Good one Nick. Pass me that mandolin and I'll change the strings for you.

**Michael Bridges** · Jan-17-2015, 6:50am

Nick, that's a killer! Sounds fine to me, dead strings or not. You got it cookin', my friend.

**Rush Burkhardt** · Jan-17-2015, 8:27am

Nice tune, Nick! Well-balanced, good tempo and time, through-out! And, oh yeah, good picking!

**rubydubyr** · Jan-17-2015, 9:23am

Awesome song, great picking

**Bertram Henze** · Jan-17-2015, 11:45am

That video reveals so much, Nick:

- you don't look like Patrick Stewart at all, and you play much better than he does
- the guitar player plays out of tune half the time, according to his clip-on tuner. Now I finally know why I dont keep mine on.

**DataNick** · Jan-17-2015, 12:08pm

Thank You everyone for the kind compliments!

Pete, you can change my strings anyday!

Bertram, I still like the moniker Loarcutus...I think Mike came up with that one...LOL!

Humors of Glendart on my $40 Epiphone MM30E/AS

I'd only been playing these back on my Samsung phone but have since plugged my computer speakers into the proper port...sounds infinitely better to me now

"Hot Asphalt" by Ewan MacColl, father of the late Kirsty MacColl of The Pogues' Fairytale of New York fame.

I first heard it by The Pogues but they likely learned it from The Dubliners

Facebook says this is the link I need to use so that anybody can see it, even without a FB account...we'll see.

Hey... I believe Mr Bill did not bother too much about that, and Norman Blake had a set of strings on his dobro measured in decades, not just years. Did not hurt your tone either there! 10 out of 10. Great stuff!

**theCOOP** · Jan-24-2015, 7:08pm

Could someone remind me what this tune is called please?

Thanks
