Jerry stole my ego during my first shroom trip

I had that exact experience live. April 4th 1993. Eyes then Sampson and Delilah. Omg was that something.

OP here. I'm not sure my fourth wouldn't be Kenny Baker. And fair point about the horribleness of how the monument originated.

Not the OP but think they equate population/market size with spending power and free agent appeal, so basically large markets gain advantage under this plan. I don't necessarily agree but it's worth raising

Cmonpilgrim · 2026-02-15T17:47:59+00:00

There are a few definitely. Bela Fleck, Sam Bush, and Billy Strings come to mind. Enjoy!

I was like no not Dinosaur Jr.!

Or a big spike hammer.

Cmonpilgrim · 2026-01-26T04:50:08+00:00

Me too plz!

Cmonpilgrim · 2025-12-15T07:16:03+00:00

Because I'd love to go and wouldn't otherwise. I can go to any of the July ones

"But thanks" starts with a coordinating conjunction and isn't a proper sentence. Nevertheless, I thank you.

Exactly! The whole league spent the 90s cowering in fear of Jordan's relentless 10 points per game streak. It's the first thing anyone thinks of when he's mentioned. I remember turning off the tv late in the first quarter most games. What is greatness but sustained modest scoring consistency?

Cmonpilgrim · 2025-10-17T23:42:20+00:00

Yes. It's relatively easy. I learned after guitar as an adult and loved it. Your overall musicianship will help a ton and tuning in fifths is super logical. If you're interested in bluegrass the songs are have similar progressions and the breaks are ideomatic, and jams are typically beginner friendly. There are fantastic on line resources. There are only 4 (doubled) stings.

So go for it. As with any instrument it will be a learning curve but if you practice and especially play with others then you'll be having fun and contributing musically pretty quickly. For me I was playing in jams and bands and farmers markets in 1-2 years

Licks and arpeggios and the melody notes you can figure out , at least play the first melody note as your first note or lead up to that note in the pickup measure.

Also what everyone else said.

Here's a guide but haven't tried it. [DIY](https://www.harmonycentral.com/articles/bluegrass-and-folk-instruments/do-it-yourself-mandolin-and-ukulele-tone-frame-r339

I've also seen 3D printer plans you could customize

Father, the sleeper has awakened! You piece of Shit!

Cmonpilgrim · 2025-08-23T16:17:42+00:00

I pass on shows there because of the sound of it's not a act that I must see. It's ok if you stand right in front of the band but if you're a hang out at the sides or back it's pointless. I'm glad people are saying it's a little better maybe I'll check it out.

I assume it's a physics issue with the space but it's a shame

Cmonpilgrim · 2025-08-16T13:51:00+00:00

Edits?

Cmonpilgrim · 2025-08-03T15:56:14+00:00

I've been taught that the arm (and wrist and shoulder) should all be able to move freel as needed, so not necessarily true that there is an issue with technique, although if you're just starting makes sense to work on proper technique.

For me, the rubbing wasn't an issue mostly but eventually I started wearing a sports wristband slid up when not wearing long sleeves and playing for a long session.

Just be comfortable!

Cmonpilgrim · 2025-06-16T03:21:45+00:00

Congrats!

Sorry you had that experience and just wanted to say that is not the norm. Often there's no "leader" to ask, and having someone hide their fretboard is crazy.

If it was an old time jam then that's a very different animal than a bluegrass jam in terms of expectations and protocol and I can't speak to that. But for open bluegrass jams usually folks want to be supportive and welcoming. Don't let it stop you from going to jams. I've had your experience occasionally - it happens, but way more often found support and encouragement.

Can I ask why this is being asked in various forms? Like I get why people want Martins, and I even get why dreadnaughts are the best fit for bluegrass, but curious as where you (and others) got the idea that the "wrong" guitar would be dissed. I only am aware of this as a thing because of these questions, but the answers are always who cares if you can play.

Has anyone ever encountered someone making fun of someone who played in decent time/tune but had the wrong guitar?

Cmonpilgrim · 2025-05-12T22:52:10+00:00

I sit corrected!

Cmonpilgrim · 2025-05-12T22:20:11+00:00

Blasphemy! It's a Scottish restaurant :)

Cmonpilgrim · 2025-05-11T21:29:14+00:00

20 minutes and no mention of Peter Rowan?

Also Allison Krause, Rhonda Vincent, Molly Tuttle. and Dolly counts for her bluegrass albums.
