Howdy again, Folks,
Thanks for all the great suggestions for our new mandolin DVD, taught by son Chris, with Murphy on guitar. I totally agree with the student who wrote, "I don’t envy you the task of selecting a name for this DVD." But, it's kinda fun, especially with your help.
As I mentioned, this DVD is designed to follow directly after our Beginning Mandolin DVD. So it's sort of an advanced beginner DVD. And, yes, it is jam oriented. These are songs we play every week at the Tip Jar Jam!
Here are the suggestions we've received so far:
Chris Henry Teaches Mandolin To Inspire You
Chris Henry Manipulates the Mandolin
Chris Henry Teaches Mandolin Mania – Learning to Jam on the Mandolin
Beginning Mandolin: Taking you to the jam

Hi Murphy,
When I submitted my idea for Chris’ new DVD I submitted: Chris Henry Teaches Mandolin two Inspire You.
I guess I should have use the numeric 2 (Chris Henry Teaches Mandolin 2 Inspire You) I know you mentioned you didn’t want to just call it Beginning Mandolin Volume 2. It looks like you thought I misspelled ‘to’, but I really meant ‘Two’. Perhaps the numeric ‘2’ would have been better. Just a little play on words (numerics) . Of course this would be my vote.
Another suggestion is: Breaking Grass with Christ Henry
Another one that stood you to me was: Chris Henry Teaches Mandolin for Misfits !
Have fun picking the name.
Roy
