greetings from sunny italy. my name is bill - i've been playing the mandolin and hanging out at the cafe for a couple of years. i have a mid-missouri m-16; an "a. galiano" bowlback from the turn of the last cent.; a "hudson" oval hole "F" - my main man-dolin - bought on-line from a music store in wales; a crafter that rarely sees the light of day and if things go as expected, i'll be getting a LV600 loar in about a month's time ... the last mandolin i will ever buy, ever, ever again ... MAS begone!
my initial interest with the mandolin was medieval european music but as my mind and body advance beyond middle age (small joke alert ... heh-heh) i find that old-time, appalachian music - the first music i ever got "into" - is what interests me now. i once read that as we get older, the more we become who we really are ... a word of appreciation for mine host: your shuffle sound on the mandolin is the hippest thing i've heard in ages - a thing of wonder. if i can pick up even a little of that style, i'll be happy ... and a waaay better player. no face book or whatever but here's my videos on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/user/billkilpatrick regards - bill --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Taterbugmando" group.
