I've recently become interested in the mandolin and I listen to a lot of mandolin music.
So I was wondering whether you can just pick one up for fun and learn a few songs on it? It would be amazing if my band could do a proper version of Styx's Boat On The River...

Methinks I'm going to give learning that Styx song a shot!

Just a heads up. |

My mom bought me one for like 60 bucks its a rogue. I don't play it that often but when your stuck in those situations where the bands going to the park to play and picnic and you don't feel the need to bring a generator and an amp, mandolins are great to have. Its a cute instrument and lots of fun! |
