I learned David Long's Cumberland Valley Reunion in GDGD a while ago (I first learned it in standard tuning but MC suggested I'd try it in GDGD), I posted about it on this list. It's on my Youtube page if you're curious. It's a fun tuning! But since I only have one mandolin, I didn't try it for long before I tuned it back to normal tuning and I haven't gone back to GDGD since.
