Great video! Helps a ton!

[@jbuckley1992]

This is the best mando lesson I've found for playing like Bill Monroe. I love how Bill would start a solo with that syncopated riff. I've been trying to learn that approach. Thanks.

Cool! Thanks for the kind words. - Mike

i realize it's kind of off topic but does anyone know of a good site to watch new tv shows online?

I'm glad you put this on here! I loved "Uncle Bill"! I hung out with him and his friends a few times.

[@MikeHeddingMusic]

Wow! Really? That's a cool story. - Mike

@@MikeHeddingMusic It's true! My mom and I used to go to the midnight jamboree in Nashville. I saw him several times. We ate with him at Waffle House in Goodlettsville.

Do a video of Foggy Mtn. breakdown for the beginners on mandolin. That song comes up a lot.

Mike - I had to pay for my mandolin...will these lessons still help me??

[@MikeHeddingMusic]

You could certainly try it but I can't make any promises. These licks sound better on a free mandolin! = )

[@clawhammer704]

I traded a fiddle for mine.....it worked for me...

[@MikeHeddingMusic]
