It’s day three of the Bob Hope Classic Pro-Am, where this year both the weather and Don’s team’s score have been fabulous.

Don’s group is currently in a tie for seventh place out of 128 (!) amateur teams. The secret is definitely the new shades.

Where Are They Now – Lowell Levinger

Would you buy a vintage mandolin from a Banana? How about one from a multi-instrumentalist and original member of an American band responsible for generations “Get(ting) Together?”

If you answered yes to either of the above, then read no further and head over to Players Vintage Instruments to place your order.

If you want to be sure where your heading before you click, rest assured it’s to Lowell Levinger, a.k.a. Banana, known for his association with the seminal folk band “The Youngbloods.” The group, fronted by singer/songwriter Jesse Colin Young, scored playlist favorites with “Get Together,” “Sunlight” and “Darkness, Darkness” between 1967-69. If you still don’t recall Banana, play the accompanying video and just look for the hair.

With Thanksgiving dinner barely digested and the first candle on our Advent wreath broken in, we’ve begun pencilling in some items on our Christmas wish list.

An all-inclusive package to Don’s shows at the Fallsview Casino in Niagara Falls coming up on January 7-9, 2010. With the falls view, of course.
A banjo-playing Steve Martin. We listened to this recent show recorded while he was on tour on NPR’s World Cafe and liked what we heard.
The new Kenny Edwards album Resurrection Road available on his site. And while we’re at it, throw in a show or two of his in December with Karla Bonoff.
Stephen Stills’ new Live at Shepherd’s Bush (CD/DVD). We were at the fantastic Amsterdam show during that solo tour and want to compare notes. (Sample video clip)
This cool silent guitar from Yamaha. Helps preserve relationships with non-music-loving partners forced to endure late night practice sessions.

Now all we gotta do is tweet this, link it on Facebook, burn the feed on Feedburner, mass e-mail the URL to our Outlook contacts, upload a version on YouTube, text it to Santa and print a hard copy for Mom.

UPDATE 2/2/2010 – Steve Martin’s “The Crow: New Songs for the 5-String Banjo” won a 2010 Grammy in the category Best Bluegrass Album
