Sam Bush and Bryan Sutton

[ldmoriarty]

Sam Bush is not only a virtuoso of the mandolin but he is also one of the most infectiously cheerful human beings on earth today.

ive met 10 year olds that play better than sam bush. just sayin..

[dgmando1]

@Jack458111 You have have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. 

[thatsthesameoldshit]

@Jack458111 - You freaking pedophile.

[mandohat]

@Jack458111 well I haven't.

[MandolinforJesus]

@Jack458111 Yeah but Sam could order a fine craft beer in a fancy restaurant if he felt so inclined to do so. So you met Chris Thile at 10? Are you, Jack, suggesting that you are better than Sam Bush at the mandolino?

[TheMandolineer]

Sam is a legend (and his tone is deep and rich, too!) He has inspired many people, including myself, to learn to play the mandolin, and for that, I would like to thank him.

[mimimcw]

there is a video where he explains this. I'm not sure which one



[nasty5oh]

Two masters.

[owsleyforkmusic]

Ive wondered why he has 2 pickguards on his guitar. does anyone know?

[academyofbluegrass]

@owsleyforkmusic It left to be a left handed guitar ;)

[popoaggie]

@owsleyforkmusic He stands on his head and plays it, too. He probably could.

[owsleyforkmusic]

@popoaggie Haha its possible 

[JMDenver]

@MandolinforJesus The song is Big Mon

[MandolinforJesus]

for the life of me I cannot remember the name of this tune but i think i have the melody under my fingers somewhere. Not like Sam though, hes been good, been good. Anyone know the name?

[snowleopardjcb]

Sam is my favorite mandolin player, and a great guy.

[justfukoff88]

@snowleopardjcb Sure enough, I had the pleasure of meeting him in Sevier county, TN earlier this year. Funny guy.

[mandoaaron]

Very sweet!
