Honestly, I kinda dig it, and would totally rock it on special occasions.

One of the very few examples where "tacky" actually works.

I can't play a mandolin, and even if I could it wouldn't be this one.

I can imagine how this went down with the traditionalists as the Mandolin Cafe. "Bill Monroe didn't play nothing that looked like that."

I cannot think of an occasion "special" enough to "rock" that thing...

The Mandolin Cafe has a ton of players who don't play bluegrass. There are sub forums for classical, jazz, international music, rock/pop, etc.

I'd totally bring that to one of my children's hospital gigs.

Surely they've suffered enough. Save it for the sex dungeon, sadist.

I haven't been there in years, maybe even a decade. I'm glad to know it has grown.

Nobody ever went broke by overestimating the vulgarity of the American people.
