The old steamboat blues!! Resonator mandolin..

Played a gig on an old steamer today! It was a blast and of course I just had to grab the reso-mandolin and climb down to the boiler room to jam with the huge old engine!!! Wonderful rhythm for a bluesy tune on the Mandolian!! Just a fun clip featuring another awesome rhythm section.. Check it out!!

Also see my tractor blues and hot bulb engine clips, haha..
