- Home > Practice Tunes > Tune of the Week - 2008
Tune of the Week (TOW) was started in April 1999 as a way of choosing tunes to learn on the mandolin & discussing how to play them with other members of CoMando ListServe. TOW continued from 1999 until 2004, reviving once again in 2007.
Note: Tunes are available as tef files in MandoZine's TablEdit Archives, pdf documents, or abc text files. See Related Links sidebar for information about using these files & links to previous years' TOW files.
Tune Discussions in CoMandoList Archives can be searched using one of these formats:
- Search for: "Tune name" (type/copy/paste the name in quotation marks) or
- Subject contains: TOW (add the number, without the leading 0; eg: TOW 2).
