Lovely.  Great work, buddy.

@seeso Thank you, Seeso! I'm trying to suck a little less each day... :-)

[fourteentwelve]

I love this Dirk! It's really cool how a facebook quote (or anything like that) can inspire a song. I love hearing stories like that. Great song, and I love the mandolin in it too.

[mugambismonkey]

@fourteentwelve Thank you, Michelle! Sometimes small things can trigger a creative phase... however most of the time nothing happens. :-)

[vsingleton]

[mugambismonkey]

@khrome242 Thank you! :-)

[uke5417]

Great song, Dirk.

You'll need to ask Ukisociety for one of those waterproof ukes for when the winds pick up.

[mugambismonkey]

@uke5417 Oh, I've played on his green one at the UWC and it's well-made and sounds surprisingly good!

[berean315]

Like it Dirk! The mandolin tremolo and picking sounds good. Didn't know you played mandolin. What kind is it?

[mugambismonkey]

@berean315 Thank you, Gerald! Between 11 and 14 I played the second mandolin in the mandolin orchestra of a neighboring village. I had free lessons for a while before I joined the orchestra. This is still the instrument I used to play then, I have just put new strings on it (the old ones were totally rusty) and adjusted the saddle. It's an Italian model. My parents bought it from one of the other players of the orchestra. Unfortunately it has no name tag, so I don't really know what brand it is.

[KenMiddletonUkulele]

Wonderful. What a great arrangement, Dirk.

[mugambismonkey]

@KenMiddletonUkulele Thank you, Ken!

[graycrom]

[JuKeBox661]

great song Dirk! nice use of the mandolin.

[mugambismonkey]

@russbuss415 Thank you, Russel!

[waterdog226]

Nice song! I wish I could hear the mandolin better. That is me, not you. Faulty ears.

[mugambismonkey]

@waterdog226 Thank you, Lynda! No worries, the mandolin is probably not loud enough in the mix. :-)
