i always ask first, even with my best picking friends, even with my students.
And i would expect someone to
ask me before picking up my mandolin, if they want to live, chances are I'm
going to say yes, i love to hear someone
better than me play my box, but I still want them to ask first. But do
It does matter to me who does the asking. An experienced mandolin
player who understands and values the instrument, is very different
than someone who has not played much, and does not understand the
value of the item he/she is holding, personal and intrinsic. I am
honored if someone plays mine w
They're meant to be played but it's polite to ask first. My good
pickin' buddies know that they can grab anything I own and play away
but they almost always ask first anyway. It's nice to know that
decent human behavior isn't completely gone!

Well, I reckon a man would need to take stock of how much liquor his
company can put away too. Are we talking about Old Grand Dad or Pappy
VanWinkle? I mean, if we're talking about "good" whiskey, at the risk
of sounding like a tightwad, I'd say keep it locked up until the
gulpers are gone.

Yeah, it's good to take stock every now and then. My fiance and I have been
running around for months with obligations and we have two weddings coming up
in October. I long for a little down time by myself. Still, nothing to
complain about and as long as life is full it's good.

What if your friend keeps his good whiskey under lock and key until
you leave? The woman, I understand.

My point is just that. Be respectful, asking is preferred, but they
are meant to be played. I'm not going to cringe whether you're the
best or a beginner.

Bob,
Not a list to speak of. Just was sitting in front of the computer
after finishing the last chart and reading a few blurbs here. Thinking
about keeping an open mind and the fingers did the rest. Not
reflection so much as train of thought rambling.
Staying on the road.

Touch without asking? Yes I would mind unless it's a friend.But
honestly I like when other people play my instruments; you truly get
to hear them that way.
The other night a fellow played my guitar all night at a session and I
was glad because 1) I got to hear it and 2) he was helping to break in
I agree with you , Mark. I play a few different mandolins, each of
which is over 80 years old. They have made it this far and are in
great shape. I can't imagine what a person who would want to check
the mandolin out and play a tune or two could do to hurt my
instrument. Then again, the
Like.

I use a PC, XP OS and Skype with broadband connection (but to Tassie
it is slower than it is in say Sydney or NYC). I tried the google

like somebody, me or Mike was in jail ..on the screen. So...Skype is
my choice. To use Skype
I agree, except for the time in an adult ed mando class when someone
picked up my prize and proceeded to bang it against the table. Now it
happens that kind of thing, accidents, I have em too, and he did ask,
but if I pick up somebody else's then I want to first ask, get a yes
and then touch it li
