My new favorite thing . . .

Of late I've been enjoying the pleasures of Pandora.com music on the Net.  For the uninitiated, it's a wonderful free music utility on the web that allows you to create various "radio stations," using criteria like artist or genre.  It will then automatically select music that might fit that profile (using its Music Genome Project) - some of it I like, some I don't, but it allows me to fine tune the selections to suit my musical tastes. 

It's a little like belonging to a book club, since it introduces one to music and musicians that may not otherwise be experienced.  So, it helps expand my musical horizons, which is good since I want to begin to learn new music to play on my guitar and sing. 

Like most freebies on the Internet, it comes laden with ads, but if you fork over the BUCK$, the ads go away.  Cool Raoul!

Jaques, had no idea it was free. Sounds like fun. When are you going to miss us and come stay awhile?

This is a good way of taking music lessons without having to worry about money, as most quality teachers will give their students' stipends for practicing, as well as lesson fees. For more about information about music lessons click here on hyperlinked site.

The mandolin is a good choice for beginners because it is light and easy to hold. The rosewood freeboard is very strong and is ideal for string instruments. To get more detailed info on best mandolins under 300, visit on hyperlinked site.
