Maid Behind The Bar / My Love Is In America (Reels)

[Holm182]

Why is the mandolinist playing his mandolin upside down? :-D Looks kinda weird to play it that way, doesn't it? :P

[thiger89]

@Holm182 it is a left hand mandolinist, the so called paul mccartney of mandolins ;)

[Holm182]

@thiger89

I know he's left handed, I'm not stupid. What I thought looked weird was that the strings are upside down?! The heavy strings are where the light strings should be.. Paul McCartney plays left handed, but this guys plays left handed AND with the strings reversed totally upside down.. -.-

Great stuff. Interesting to see a left hand mandolin player on a right hand instrument. Who is he by the way? The second reel is My Love is in America
