"You're Still the One" is a song recorded by Canadian singer #ShaniaTwain for her third studio album #ComeOnOver (1997). The song was inspired by criticism of Twain's relationship with her then-husband and #producer #RobertJohnMuttLange and depicts her celebrating their marriage despite the difficulties and differences between the two. Written by Twain and Lange, it is a #piano-driven #countryPop ballad incorporating #guitar, #organ, and #mandolin.

Okay, in 1851 the opera Rigoletto was first performed in Venice. BUT 155 years later, a Canadian film adaptation, ''Rigoletto ...in bluegrass" won Best Originality at the Bluegrass Independent Film Festival in Kentucky.

While most of the music is deliberately corny bluegrass, the Prelude and the Introduction from the original opera are performed by the Mandolin Society of Peterborough.

Howdy y'all. #Intro #introduction We're Whiskey and Stitches, a band out of Sacramento, California. We play traditional Irish, Scottish, and American folk music in a nontraditional way. We're anti fascist, anti racist, LGBTQIA allies and god help you if you mess with our people. Looking forward to new music this year, making new connections, and lighting a few fires #PunkMusic #FolkMusic #IrishFolk #Appalachia #ScottishFolk #Banjo #Guitar #Mandolin

Yes, he's an amazing player. At one of our mandolin concerts, two members of our group did a creditable rendition of the William Tell Overture. Mandolins are fun!

A lazy morning at home with my sweetie;

Cats around the house dozing on electric blankets;

And a not-a-chain, brick-and-mortar store that was more than ready to outfit me with gear for this decade's hobby: #mandolin, anyone?

(Prior decades: motorcycling, grad school, bicycling)

Saw local guy nearby on Craigslist selling a Mid Missouri mandolin for a decent price, checking out this afternoon, could be good. #mandolin

"The Entertainer" is a 1902 #classicPianoRag written by #ScottJoplin. It was sold first as sheet music by #JohnStarkAndSon of #StLouis, Missouri, and in the 1910s as piano rolls that would play on #playerPianos. The first recording was by blues and #ragtime musicians the #BlueBoys in 1928, played on #mandolin and guitar. As one of the classics of ragtime, it returned to international prominence as part of the ragtime revival in the 1970s.

Time for a new #introductions

I am ostensibly human and can prove it cryptographically.

I like Art, all art, and most technologies. I hack mostly Perl, Bash, and Python but have spent the most of my time building websites with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript (ever since Flash/ActionScript died). I've been working with AI since long before LLMs were a thing, mostly for creative endeavors. I survived the flame wars and will no longer tolerate that kind of behavior. I am not a "Real Programmer" and neither is anyone else.

I play guitar, mandolin, some piano & drums, and I'm picking up ukulele a little. I crochet manageably and knit poorly. I can still do a fair number of my old magic tricks, but nobody really wants to see that kinda stuff anymore. I occasionally draw, collage, and paint as well as repair most household objects.

I have art and writing on my website(s), and if you can find them all hopefully you enjoy some of it, because I am not a "Content Creator" and I'm not interested in becoming an "Influencer," I just want to make stuff and experience life and share it with the world at my discretion.

I'm married with 2 kids, but usually I keep them out of my online interactions for their privacy.

Here's some hashtags I follow:

Unearthed some of my old #holograms from college, inspired by the recent 3Blue1Brown video. This is my favorite piece: a shard of glass and a thin layer of chemical emulsion, revealing a a silvery White Rabbit belt buckle owned by my prof, Mike Hannum.

What deep magic this is, echoed in the endless dark sustain of the octave #mandolin... I'll share some more soon. ✨
