That is awesome !
Me putting my Mandobird through its paces in order to sell it on ebay.
I never got as far as actually putting it up on eBay as the process of doing the video made me fall in love with it again... obviously.

Here in a near tune my brother and I are playing. I'm on the mando and he's on the guitar. The guitar is tuned and played more like a banjo with a high E string on the top replacing the Low E and open tuned.
Please excuse the poor I phone video quality but I think the music make's up for it at least a little.
Whoa! Very good groove Jr. You, your brother and your young audience again making it look easy.

Yeah Nick...you kicked A$$ on that break! Do you ever bust into that stuff at the Eyetalian restaurant?
Unfortunately the restaurant gig ended fairly quickly....there's a "Nurse Ratched" server/mgr who is on a mission to keep all live entertainment out of that restaurant. The owner let's her run the show. Several musician friends (better than me btw) couldn't keep a gig there either...
Thanks for the kind words Brotha!

Hi folks! This is my first post to this thread on my Morris...
Frankdolin,
Nicely Done!
Lovely tone on that Morris Oval-hole! Enjoy your technique and style...I've got to learn this stuff in earnest for my "other" life playing in restaurants solo...very impressive man!

My band here in Asheville, N.C.
Excuse the roughness...I got this idea and had to record it. I only did a few takes, so I started improvising toward the end.
Clip today from our gig at a wonderful nursing home that we play at every couple of months. Best audience ever!

Played yesterday at my local village festival (street festival, not music) in a duo with a guitarrist/tuba player. Mostly he played guitar and sang songs from the "classic rock" cannon whilst I accompanied him on emando, but I couldn't resist slipping this in, a mashup of Hanneke Cassel's "Glass Case of Emotion" with Talking Heads' "Psycho Killer":
"Give me a mandolin and I'll play you rock 'n' roll" (Keith Moon)
Same as with looking in a mirror ! I don't do it anymore ! Don't like what I see or hear !!
Yeah, I'm my own worst critic and have avoided this video stuff for a long time. But I'm seeing the value of watching myself play and learning from my mistakes. Here's my band playing "My favorite things" last Sunday.
From a recent gig. I'm on the mando

This is an alt. ver. of the 2013 video that I just came across and felt it was a different enough to post.The pics are taken by me this year.
As so often happens on the interweb, looking for something leads one to finding something else - or looking for something else leads one to finding something else altogether. As a wise man once said, "Life is what happens while you're busy making other plans." I don't believe I've posted this before, from one of my old bands. I believe this falls into the "ragged but right" category. At least the mandolin level is about right in the mix - a bit loud. Better than not loud enough
But that's just my opinion. I could be wrong. - Dennis Miller
