I have no direct knowledge of what transpired up there on stage, and even tho’ I am but a lowly local musician, I always carry backups to our gigs. So I wouldn’t call them props, just the 2nd string (so to speak). My Gibson mandolin is gonna stay in the case if the conditions are not right for its use, it’s why I didn’t sell the Tacoma.
