My own self-imposed silliness
Last week I started a project through my blog (www.fredkellermando.com): write a song a week for a month. A modicum of self discipline never hurt and this way I hope to expand my repertoire too. So week two starts Monday and I haven't gotten any suggestions from the interwebs like I did for week one. The first week's suggestions and result are posted on the blog. Anyone care to have something brutaliz--er, immortalized in song? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Taterbugmando group.

Re: More GDGD fun
Leatherwing Bat. Just arranged this so it's raggedy-assed but what the heck. It may take a few minutes yet for youtube to get the whole thing processed so that the vocal syncs with the music. Another tip for GDGD playing is that if you slap a capo on the 2nd fret you've got open A tuning available. Oh, and cutting off the top of my head actually does help my interpersonal relationships. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypwLIbZqV-0 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Taterbugmando group.

Re: Old Timey playing
rant mode on; ratcheted up to 11 This kind of feedback from the so-called keepers of the flame of old time makes the gorge fairly well buoyant. Who bequeathed them the music and who told 'em it was a fossil, fit only to stick under glass in a museum? Real musicians don't often think this way about music nor did those first-gen folks whom they--and we--admire. Here's your mantra: Screw 'em Screw the fiddle mafia that makes six of them vs one of you a good jam Screw the lock-step jack-booted thugs who keep careful track of who's playing the wrong notes of the wrong version Screw the smug know-it-alls who insist on only one kind of old-time Play what you want and if they don't like...sc--well, you get the idea rant mode off; urge to killsubsiding ;^)...but only partially On 1/15/10 3:53 PM, Topher Gayle wrote: Once I was jamming on my mando at a small old time jam, pretty much playing backbeats.

Re: Old Timey playing
Oh yea--this has nothing to do with Brad Leftwich at all, a guy I've picked with a (miniscule) bit and who I admire On 1/15/10 3:53 PM, Topher Gayle wrote: Once I was jamming on my mando at a small old time jam, pretty much playing backbeats.
