You’re welcome!

I'm still working on Wanted Dead or Alive (Thanks for that video by the way) This one turned into a nice side project since it only has three cords. It's turning out nicely. Thanks for posting these tutorials

[@RockPopMandolin]

No worries! Glad to help!

This is my go to channel when wanting to learn , very helpful and always keeping it simple , I've only been playing a few months and found this channel to be the best for learning . Thanks Mike for your help on my journey to musical freedom.

[@RockPopMandolin]

Wow, that’s great! Thanks for the kind words. Happy to share the gift of music!

[@markusa9878]

Love that you put the words & chords below the video

[@RockPopMandolin]

Thanks. Yes, some of them. I think it’s important to get a sense of the chord changes and such.

Great song!!! Thanks!!!!!

[@RockPopMandolin]

Thanks very much! I miss Tom Petty!

[@daviswebster7663]

Is it possible to do a lesson on how to play Tom’s song, You Don’t Know How It Feels? Thanks so much!

[@RockPopMandolin]

I’ll take a look!

I use this song when tuning up, except I play it in D with D,G & A...I use a 1 finger A chord by simply fretting the G & D strings at the 2nd fret which makes the easiest A chord on the mando...this sounds good in G too...I never knew the song was originally in F though...what are the other chords for playing it in F? I want to learn it in these other 2 keys now...

[@RockPopMandolin]

Well, it’s basically a common I-IV-V progression. So in F it’s F-Bb-C.

[@Road_Rash]

Awesome! I've never learned enough about music to know the number system...I have the Complete Idiot's Guide To Music Theory that's still way over my head...Lol! I play mostly by ear & don't have any real actual knowledge of music...just know that I like it...Lol!

[@Road_Rash]

Speaking of 'liking it', how about doing the Rolling Stones It's Only Rock & Roll (But I Like It)?

[@RockPopMandolin]

@@Road_Rash Good suggestion. Thanks!

[@mikeellis600]

Good one Mike I’ve been waiting for another one to my liking. Thank you! May I ask at what age did you first play the mandolin? I am almost 30 and just started 3 months ago.

[@RockPopMandolin]

Thanks! I started playing about three years ago after playing guitar and bass for many years.

[@mikeellis600]

Rock & Pop Mandolin Awesome! Thanks again really do enjoy the uploads.

Thanks for uploading! If you have a minute, I recorded a cover of Little Big Town. As a fellow music lover, I'd love if you'd take a listen. It's on my page. Hope you like it!
